Fond memories to my last company, where every email had its links obscured in the email client, so you couldn't even tell where they led before you clicked on them.
I never understood this
I mean in that case it was running everything through a filter when accessing said links. Fair enough, but makes the training we did to verify links mildly pointless, and I don't believe it was that good at filtering out phishing links either.
