@keepassxc
Methinks you should go buy as many typosquat domains as are available before copycats get to them.

[Gast]

@gremlin We already own a lot of variants with different top-level domains and redirect them to keepassxc.org. The only one we couldn't get is .com, because someone snatched it already and has since put it on auction after it was put on block lists. But we cannot also register all possible combinations with hyphens and typos.

[Gast]

@eroc1990 We own several already, but it's a losing game and a pretty expensive one at that.

@nestab @keepassxc The p.s. I use VoidLinux and the b.t.w. I use ArchLinux folks are awake now ?

[Gast]

@keepassxc @eroc1990
Yeah, that sounds like Whac-a-mole.

Anything else that can be done about it?

I just reported it to DuckDuckgo, it is the third result for "keepass xc" there currently -.-

[Gast]

@keepassxc Jeeze people. Team KeePassXC is trying the best they can. It's absurd to think that a FREE project can just go out and buy $100,000 worth of typo domains. Do a little research into what you're clicking. I for one applaud the effort KeePassXC is making to try and calm it down, but give them a little slack.

@dreua
Enter lots of fake emails to them? Possibly to domain that tarpits every access or something else that slows down them..

@keepassxc this reminds me to send a donation. Not to buy domains, but just because...

keepassxc is a fave.

@smalldog Thanks!

@dreua @eroc1990 Without a registered trademark, there's little we can do.
