I don't fully understand what you mean, but google changes some links when you click them to track what you clicked on.
So when you hover over an item usually, it shows on the bottom left/right what the link is
But in this case (edge and chrome) I see the link actively changing and like resolving or something of the sorts. Very odd. I don’t normally use these two put it was the only way I could see the sponsored links (thanks Firefox!)
Normally I’d expect just a static “this link here, goes here” rather than it changing in real time like this. Wondering if it’s normal chrome/chromium behavior or if this is an exploitation of google search functionality stemming from the google search source code leaks from earlier last week or the week prior.
Very interesting stuff.
