> Ordinary law-abiding people don't go fiddling with URLs
That's complete nonsense. I've often changed a URL because it didn't work and had a typo. It's right there at the top of the web browser asking everyone to fiddle with it. If you were right, the URL bar would not be editable in web browsers, so you should be complaining to Google, Apple, MS, Mozilla for leaving this criminal-use-only feature so prominently on their products.
