Bug #: 31747
Summary: Email cloak
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: [other]
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
It has came to my attention that a lot of people seem to be posting their email
addresses in an text<image>text format. Bots are able to read emails from that.
Instead perhaps an image should be generated with an extension displaying the
text as an image.
I was thinking of something like <math> but am not sure the best way to execute
this. Perhaps the magic word would display whatever email user is confirmed
with and post that provided user enables this in settings.
This is intended as an anti-spam measure.
