Oh what does this mean? HN blocks newly registered domains? Or Some people's firewall blocks newly registered websites?
- buro9 4y agoSome people's firewalls. It prevents a lot of crypto scams and malware. i.e. https://nextdns.io/ https://nextdns.io/ gives the option: Block domains registered less than 30 days ago. Those domains are known to be favored by threat actors to launch malicious campaigns Equivalents exist on corp firewalls, etc. Something like 70% of malware and phishing points to domains registered in the last 30 days. So it is an easy way to mitigate the risk of the majority of attacks.
