But would you always catch it if you were redirected to www.youtube.com.you1ube.com/something? Or possibly worse - http://www.youtube.com⁄bad-site.com/somethin

  In this I rely on my browser to filter deceptive characters in domain names. When I hover over the link you gave (or click it and see it in the address bar), it looks like http://www.youtube.xn--combad-site-hx3f.com/something_else http://www.youtube.xn--combad-site-hx3f.com/something_else (which lets off plenty of flags for me).

  When hovered, then clicked in Opera: opera:illegal-url-24 Error! Invalid URL The URL http://www.youtube.com⁄bad-site.com/something_else http://www.youtube.com⁄bad-site.com/something_else contains characters that are not valid in the location they are found. The reason for their presence may be a mistyped URL, but the URL may also be an attempt to trick you into visiting a Web site which you might mistake for a site you trust.
