I mean, even their AIs know what's better.. when asked "is it a good idea to hide the address of an email sender and only display its name?" Google just replied: ----- No, it is a bad idea to hide the email address and only display the name because it promotes email display name spoofing, which is a common tactic in phishing scams designed to trick recipients into believing the email is from a trusted source. The actual email address and its domain are critical for verifying the sender's identity, and hiding this information makes users more vulnerable to scams by obscuring the real sender and making it harder to spot malicious intent ----- So if they keep having more and more code written by AI, it might fix it some day.
