--- Comment #4 from Anne van Kesteren <annevk at annevk.nl> ---
Thanks, I guess we should keep this open for now then. The phishing aspect for these URLs is mainly that you could put something before the `@` that might confuse the end user about where they are going.

It's deprecated for all URLs apparently: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986.html#section-3.2.1. https://url.spec.whatwg.org agrees with this though states it in a less obvious manner.
