Typosquatting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Typosquatting, also called URL hijacking, is a form of cybersquatting which relies on mistakes such as typographical errors made by Internet users when inputting a website address into a web browser. |
 | | As with Cybersquatting in the past, the term Typosquatting has been used by covetous parties in an effort to unseat domain registrants from brandable variants of generic domain names. |
 | | As in the preceding example, the dividing line between typosquatting and registering a variant of a generic word or phrase blurs, dependent on individual case and circumstance. |
