What geeks call an International Domain Name Homograph Attack, the general public calls typo-squatting. This is when threat actors buy domain names that are close to popular ones hoping to trick users, examples:
gma1l.com instead of gmail.com
paypa1.com instead of paypal
To help protect users from these tricksters, Google is launching Navigation suggestions for lookalike URLs. Think of this as an AI powered auto-correct for URLs. This feature is in active experimentation in Canary 70 and should enter the mainstream version in the coming months. A google engineer even spoke about it at the Usenix conference.
If you are one of the courageous experimenters running Canary, you can enable this feature now using this flag:
chrome://flags/#enable-lookalike-url-navigation-suggestions
