Sierra Terminal Automatically Escapes Pasted URLs Copy a URL that has some query string into clipboard like: https://www.google.com/webhp?q=macos
Paste the URL in Terminal (CMD+v), the Terminal automatically escapes ? and = and changes the text to https://www.google.com/webhp\?q\=macos.


How can I turn this automatic escaping off?

This is either a bug in zsh or a configuration issue for bracketed-paste-magic or url-quote-magic 

You could use a different shell or remove / add configuration for zsh to remedy this feature/bug:
