I guess the automation started in 2007 or so.
- jedberg 6y agoI think you mean 2017? 2007 is when the feature launched.
- megous 6y agojanuary/february 2007 looks like the time the list jumped from a few hundred to tens of thousands of sites.
- ehsankia 6y agoMalware may be easier to catch, but for phishing, it was fairly small (under 150k) until around 2016 where it starts growing linearly.
- jedberg 6y agoThat was the normal volume of manually identified sites at the time. Before 2007 there weren’t a lot of participants because it was in beta.
