RWGFY: spot Russian websites before you click Don't want to land on Russian websites while searching Google? RWGFY helps you identify them right in Google Search results. A short label under a result helps you assess a website before opening it. No separate WHOIS tools or manual digging through technical details. The label, website facts and your decision are all in one place. WHY RWGFY Russian websites often look local: a .ua domain, Ukrainian language, a familiar name. Behind them can be Russian infrastructure, with servers, registrars and trackers that send your data and money to Russia, plus propaganda and fakes. RWGFY shows this right in search, so you decide where to click, where to shop and which news to trust. WHAT RWGFY DOES • Labels in Google Search — A status appears under search results, helping you spot Russian websites and avoid them while looking for information. • Website fact card — Check the domain, DNS NS and MX, hosting, registrar and trackers. Review the technical information behind the assessment. • Masking signals — A domain may look local while its technical infrastructure is linked to Russia. RWGFY highlights these signals to help you notice possible masking. • Status in the extension icon — Opened a website directly instead of through Google Search? Check its available status through the RWGFY icon in Chrome. • Your settings — Rename labels, turn search labels off and choose your interface language: Ukrainian, English, Polish, Lithuanian, Latvian, Estonian or Finnish. • Report a mistake — Think a website has been labeled incorrectly? Submit a report for moderation. • An extra feature for fun — Optionally replace the Russian president's surname on web pages with a nickname of your choice. This feature is off unless you enable it. When there isn't enough information, RWGFY shows the corresponding status instead of making an unsupported conclusion. HOW THE WEBSITE CHECK WORKS RWGFY analyzes available technical signals about a domain and its infrastructure, including the domain zone, DNS NS and MX, hosting, registrar and trackers. These signals are used to determine a status, and you can review the underlying facts in the website card. Technical signals can help identify possible links to Russian infrastructure, but they do not always establish website ownership or guarantee safety. Review the facts and make your own judgment. WHO IT'S FOR • People who don't want to give Russian websites their traffic, money or data. • Online shoppers who want to know whose store they're on. • News readers who don't want propaganda disguised as local media. • Parents, teachers and anyone who wants to see where information comes from. Note: Labels in search results work in Google Search. For websites opened directly, the status is available through the extension icon. Built by Softum (rwgfy.com.ua). Made in Ukraine. Spot Russian websites before you click. Install RWGFY.
