For the past couple of weeks I’ve been working on a PHP system that uses the Google Safe Browsing API to download blacklists and perform lookups on them with the goal of limiting the destructiveness of phishing and malware websites. Its still in a very early development phase (alpha) and there is still a lot left to be done but… it works! I’ve started Continue reading
Whilst working on a new open-source project I needed to be able to be able to detect/remove the TLD’s from hostnames. This is no easy task algorithmically as example.co.uk (level 2) is just as valid as example.com (level 1) which is also just as valid as example.bob.shiga.jp (level 3). I came across a project from Mozilla that lists all TLDs. This isn’t the easiest format to work with each time you want to test hostnames.

I’ve edited the list, removed those which are either commercial, don’t provide actual email addresses or those that I can visibly see don’t work. The list on Wikipedia may be slightly out of date so let me know if any carriers have changed/updated their system.
The database is in CSV format. To download, “right click -> save link as… ” as the link below and remove the “_.txt”. You can then import into MySQL or whatever.
