This isn't what phishing is. You might not like it, but that doesn't make it phishing.

Your parent post might have been changed, but it currently says 'proxying', not 'phishing'.

It said 'phishing' yes.

Parent could have posted something along the lines of 'ah yes, phishing is something else', but ah well.
