One nice thing is that it is quite inaccurate, I've visited a large number of the sites it tells me I haven't.

- chrismarlow9 11y agoIt's accurate depending on what you're looking for. Saying you didn't visit a site means you either did, or did not, but saying you did visit a site means you 100% did for sure. In the case of a negative the results are meaningless, but in the case of a positive they are accurate. Similar to a bloom filter
- michaelmior 11y agoI saw several sites pop up on the list of sites I visited that I'm quite sure I've never explicitly been to. It's possible these were all loaded via ads or some such thing, but it seems unlikely.
- lysium 11y agoI've just checked my history and the sites I thought I have not visited do not show (2/14). Maybe 85%?
- bcrypt 11y agoYeah, I think the accuracy so far has been like 75-80% among my friends (once httpseverywhere is disabled). PS: you can check whether sites are in your HSTS cache in chrome at chrome://net-internals#hsts
