angular creating unwanted links

Question

I am using angular 4, with angular cli. With the default generated config files. The framework is generating unwanted anchor tags. I am trying to show this as plain text. This line inside my template.html:

someExampleSite.com

when served in the browser it becomes:

<a class="vglnk" href="http://someExampleSite.com" rel="nofollow">
 <span>someExampleSite</span>
 <span>.</span>
 <span>com</span>
</a>

Is there a way to get around this? I only want to display someExampleSite.com as plain text on the page.
