Lol. Have fun with that. I bet you anything it won't work because the failure point is still humans themselves. The amount of information people give out is astonishing

This so much this. Windows and most modern devices already WILL warn you when something is not safe and clearly that isn't making it stop. It's the human stubbornly signing up to obvious phishing and disregarding these warnings

It's still better than nothing. Even if it just warns users to be careful I'm sure it would stop some people from sharing to a bad actor.
