How to pass variables in a Text String to be validated on the UI

Interesting problem. According to wikipedia there are many UNICODE characters that look - or ー, very similar each other but have different UNICODE code point. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyphen-minus U+002D - HYPHEN-MINUS U+2010 ‐ HYPHEN U+2212 − MINUS SIGN U+2013 – EN DASH U+2014 — EM DASH In your target HTML, which - like character is used? — it is difficult to know. How can you verify a message with those ambiguous - like characters? My bet is to disregard them. You need a trick. …

You showd the following string contained in your CSV file:

@Randy.Ramkissoon

DuckDuckGo — Privacy, simplified.

In this string, there is a U+2014 — EM DASH.

On the other hand, the title of DuckDuckGo site contains U+002D - HYPHEN-MINUS.

These 2 characters are different.

Why your CSV file contains U+2014 — [EM DASH] rather than U+002D - [HYPHEN-MINUS]?
