  High level recap: Chrome - fixed in 59 (current stable is 57) Firefox - no plans to change; you can adjust network.IDN_show_punycode in about:config IE - immune Safari - immune

    Could you explain what fixed/immune means? Is it only the confusable characters, ie characters that are visually identical or near-identical to latin characters, that is getting the punycode treatment?

      I think IE and Safari just don't support Unicode in domains.

      I'm not sure the nature of Chrome's fix, but IE and Safari don't support punycode.
