We have decades of experience that tells us that the IETF is hopeless at UI design, and our intuition is usually wrong. In particular, displaying warnings that "this may be bad" or even "this is extremely bad" is known not to work. No matter what you say, people will click through any warning to get to their kitten GIFs or porn or whatever. _______________________________________________ dmarc mailing list dmarc@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
