  I feel like a lot of the time when I see vulnerabilities I am in awe of the ingenuity of malicious hackers to exploit very precise issues in a codebase.

  This time I'm just amazed how anyone could fail to see this coming.

  It's nice that Netflix.com is protected, but this is a potential phishing attack (or links just won't work) for any website ending in x?!

  Hmm, I wonder where the Twitter/X employees who would've seen this coming went?

  Someone's also purchased setwitter.com to prevent the same attack on another obvious domain
