- yamrzou 2y agoI wonder if Chrome has a hard-coded list of domains against which it checks for phishing attempts, or if it sends visited urls to Google for that...
- mcpherrinm 2y agoDocumentation for the feature: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/security/lookalikes/lookalike-domains.md https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs... > Chrome attempts to detect these lookalike domains by comparing the URL you visited with other URLs that are either very popular, or that you have visited previously. These checks all happen within Chrome -- Chrome does not communicate with Google to perform these checks. “Very popular” does make it sound like they have preloaded some list of the top 1000 or whatever domains.
