The new ".zip" domain is being used almost solely for malware. Some of the clicks are very deceptive, even to technically knowledgeable people. See the attached image for an example.

You can block all zip domains with the following uBlock Origin rule:

||zip^

@suprjami Are there already malicious zip domains in the wild?

@suprjami
Just blocked all zip TLDs in my router, thanks for the heads up!

@suprjami what's even better is that google use sliding scales for how much any given .zip domain costs.. $dayjob bought one (not a super generic word, but is an umbrella brand we use) for 48 bucks, other versions of the same brand word (but separated out into their two component words) are 680 for one, and 1480 for the other. Per year.

The domains are utterly useless to us, but buying them _might_ reduce some phishing, maybe.

Google, in my opinion, can frankly go get F'd, the greedy @#$%ers
