Summary

This extension will validate Steemit related websites by changing its icon color:

  • red is for blacklisted sites
  • green is for recognised friendly sites
  • grey is for unrecognised sites

On Steemit.com, the system already marks external links with a grey icon on the right of each links. Steemed Phish will make that icon more obvious by coloring it in purple. On top of that, it will make a bubble appear next to the mouse cursor with a text explaining the fact that clicking on the link with leads you away so don't use your password.

Steemed Phis uses:

  • a whitelist
  • a blacklist
  • a link detection from the current page

Blacklist and whitelist are hard to maintain but adding them help widening the coverage.
