Virtually all browsers contain blacklists to prevent users from accessing malicious sites: Google Safe Browsing, Phishtank, etc. These blacklists do not however, generally block sites that have been compromised for Blackhat spam SEO attacks, HTML/JavaScript injections pulling malicious content from another domain, etc. Rather, they block the malicious pages that hijacked sites redirect to, or pull content from.
This behavior is fine for most websites where you just surf and do not leave any sensitive information. But would you be fine with leaving your personal mailing address, your phone number and your credit card number on a website that is fully controlled by ill-intentioned hackers? How do you know the site you are visiting has not been compromised when your blacklist ignores this type of threat?
The Zscaler Safe Shopping add-on is continually fed information regarding compromised and fake online stores. It warns you when you visit one of these domains. The list of domains is checked and updated regularly via Zscaler's cloud security service.
