“We plan to hide ‘https’ scheme and subdomain ‘www’ in Chrome omnibox in M76”
The worst part:<p>&gt; We&#x27;ve worked with other browser representatives to incorporate URL display guidance into the web URL standard (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;url.spec.whatwg.org&#x2F;#url-rendering-simplification" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;url.spec.whatwg.org&#x2F;#url-rendering-simplification</a>). The URL spec documents that browsers may simplify the URL by omitting irrelevant subdomains and schemes in security-sensitive surfaces like the omnibox.<p>Google is trying to make this obfuscation a standard.
