Description Tim Pederick 2024-06-03 01:32:40 PDT
The blog post “Responsive Design for Motion” <https://webkit.org/blog/7551/responsive-design-for-motion/> has two links to the website of the Vestibular Disorders Association, <https://vestibular.org/>… or that are supposed to, anyway. There is a typo in one of the links, the one appearing in this sentence:

> Vestibular disorders are more common than you might guess: affecting as many as 69 million people in the United States alone.

This link has the TLD “.ong” instead of “.org”. It would appear that a typo-squatter has registered that domain name, and the website there is somewhat suspicious. (It has a self-signed cert that claims the org to be in “Some-State, AU” but website is in Russian.)
