Domain Info extension/add-on

Domain Info is a browser extension/add-on that shows really detailed info about a domain, like registration status & dates, the person or company who registered it, WHOIS, DNS and much more.

Highlights

• See domain availability: registered or available
• Show at which registrar the domain is registered and owner info (if public)
• See domain important dates: registration date, expiry date
• Info about Name Servers
• DNS records: detects most subdomains added to a domain
• History: see when and what changes happened in WHOIS or DNS Records
• Does not track or record browser history. The only info used is current tab url when extension icon is clicked
