Of course I make typos :) But .al is the top-level domain of a country. This is the original purpose of the system. If you type something that looks like a valid domain, and this is a valid domain, why not make it a link? Maybe I mistook your point all along. Why don’t you think this should be a link?
I would agree that we have too many useless TLDs, and Google did help in spreading more domains, but I just don’t think this is a case where it applies.
You can tell me what’s incorrect all day long. Doesn’t matter. Many people can’t spell to save their life, plus autocorrect likes to screw with people as well.
If one accidental character is the difference between a legal term and a link, the world is soon to be fucked.
And? et.al is used in practically all USA legal documents.
So what, all our legal documents are supposed to link to Albania now?
Cuz that’s how this shit tries to work now.
As others have pointed out, it’s actually: et al.
You’re mad about nothing.
Congrats, you must not make any typos. I guess nobody else makes any tpyos either according to your statistics.
One wrong dot, one wrong space, suddenly legit text becomes an unexpected, unintended link.

The original top level domains were .com, .net, .org, and .gov. Your fancy country top level domains were never part of the original internet plan.
Is that origin.al or not?
Whoops, my bad, I must have made a typo somewhere…

Just wait until someone registers et.al…
