   my questions are thus
   - does this seem obvious to you?
   - do you think this would be obvious to the least computer literate person in your life?
   - seen something like this where you are?

     so there's a supermarket chain round here called e.leclerc, and they also do truck rentals

     on their trucks they print "location.leclerc" (lit: rental.leclerc). there's no indication that this is a url, no http:// or www, no planet symbol

     it is quickly clear to me that this is a url, because, being a turbonerd, i know that you can just buy a TLD nowadays, and i know that they did. but this seems confusing for everyone else. if anything, this looks like an instagram username (not taken, btw)
