A month or two ago I had a random thought, “Wouldn’t it be cool to integrate phishtank.com‘s database of online “phishy” URLs into Squid somehow?”

My next target is to extend it to include Google’s SafeBrowsing API and downloadable hash database, which will provide enterprise organisations, ISPs, educational instutions and the like more of a reason to run Squid to provide extra safety against all the evil crap thats out there.
