Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for mitigating against registering a domain name that is confusingly similar to a pre-existing domain name, possibly for the purpose of fooling users. In embodiments, a domain name is presented for registration. The domain name is rendered as an image, and optical character recognition is performed on the image to extract the rendered text. This extracted text is compared against a list of domain names for which confusingly similar domain names cannot be registered, and when the extracted text matches a domain name in this list of domain names, registration of the domain name is denied.
