A "public suffix" is a domain name under which Internet users can directly
register own names.
Browsers and other web clients can use it to
- avoid privacy-leaking "supercookies"
- avoid privacy-leaking "super domain" certificates [1]
- domain highlighting parts of the domain in a user interface
- sorting domain lists by site
Libpsl...
- has built-in PSL data for fast access
- allows to load PSL data from files
