Google Chrome has another solution to help users turn back from dodgy websites.
As spotted by ZDNet, it's testing a way to spot lookalike URLs and help redirect users to go to the right place with the Chrome Canary browser, which is used to experiment with upcoming features.
SEE ALSO:Google built a digital Etch-A-Sketch that's just as hard to use as the real thingYou can switch on the experimental feature in Canary by entering chrome://flags/#enable-lookalike-url-navigation-suggestions in the address bar, and enabling it.
From there, a dropdown will appear below the address bar if you've entered or clicked through to a lookalike URL, with a link to the correct version.
It only applies to websites with a site engagement score, so we can imagine Chrome won't step in if you're trying to visit a niche website.

Lookalike URLs aim to trick users by mimicking the name of a popular website or brand, and luring them to a questionable site which could be used for malware or phishing attacks.
These kinds of URLs have been steadily on the rise, as tricksters employ tactics like typosquatting and IDN homograph attacks to fool users.
