# Registry-Controlled Domain Service This directory contains Chromium's copy of the [Public Suffix List](https://publicsuffix.org/) and utilities for accessing it. This is useful for callers who need to understand what the eTLD ("effective Top-Level Domain") + 1 is for some hostname, which in turn is necessary to determine things like "this host should be allowed to read/write cookies from this other host". Update instructions can be found at src/net/tools/tld_cleanup/README.
