Hi all, this is Wenqing,

I came up with the idea of auto URL safety checker.

Use case: When others send you a URL (on Slack or promotion emails)

The old way to check the safety of the URL you received is: click it, or copy & paste it to the checker

The new way: you can see if it's safe right after you received it.

Really need your feedback on it, thanks a ton!
