This could also be implemented in a forum anyway right? wouldnt really make much difference in messenger. beside, people would still click a link in messenger that they dont know where its going if they're stupid enough.
usually when you get sent a link in messenger is beause you are expecting it, if not, you ask what it is, if you dont trust the person don't click it.
A link is still a link weather it looks like
http://www.linkeylink.com/thisisacrazylookinglonglinkthat/justlooks/stupid
This! or....
Link Here
This, people are gonna click it either way.
Anyways, I believe this would be a good idea.
If you don't trust a person, don't follow links they send you, if you dont trust the link, don't follow it, if you don't know what it is, ask.
