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.

the approaching danger ... we do not hear it.
Tears of the pine, blood of the wound
white cells of an empty prison
