Some people say CSS is not a programming language. Me, I use it for things like this to alert journalists that the articles they copied pasted into WordPress editor has Microsoft safelinks in them.

@darice @darice I like that thought I don’t know what are Microsoft safe links. Would you like to explain? Ty

@iko I suspect that when the press agency emails articles, the journalists copy it directly from the email in Outlook instead of the Words doc. When putting links in outlook email I suspect Microsoft converts them to safelinks, which redirects the links through their system. This way Microsoft can track the link activity.

@darice Ah, dat moet ik ook doen voor de Outlook-linkjes die ze hier in het CMS plakken. Thanks voor de reminder.
