perplexity.com 如何在没有扩展的情况下在浏览器中持续存在？
我之前在 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47142325 上谈到过这个问题。
事实：
- 昨天在更新后重启了 Arch Linux，因此浏览器将以干净的状态启动。
- 自那次重启以来，我没有打开过 perplexity.com。
- 今天早上，Chromium 尝试打开 perplexity.com。
- 大约 8 小时后，又一次尝试访问该网站。
- 我在 Chromium 中没有其他扩展，只有 ublock origin，版本为 147.0.7727.116（官方版本，未谷歌化的 Chromium）Arch Linux（64 位）。
那么，为什么 Chromium 会尝试打开 perplexity.com 呢？
我安装了 opensnitch，每次连接都会提示允许或拒绝，这就是我能找到这些请求的原因。
我几天前确实使用过 perplexity，但确定是在更新之前，因此电脑已经重启。
这是从 /usr/lib/chromium/chromium 生成的。
即使是 /usr/lib/firefox/browser/omni.ja 中也充满了 perplexity.ai 的内容，还有其他一些网站，这让我感到震惊。我在 Firefox、Librewolf 和 Thunderbird 的库中发现了 perplexity 的提及，但在 Chromium 中没有。
我知道有一个 aur/perplexity 1.5.1-2 客户端，但我没有安装，因为我没有他们的账户。
这比病毒还糟糕。我甚至不知道从哪里开始寻找证据？Chromium 的代码？

I talked about this before on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47142325<p>Facts:
- restarted archlinux yesterday after updates, so browser will start clean
- did not open perplexity.com since that restart
- on the morning chromium tried to open perplexity.com
- again after more or less 8 hours, another call to that site
- I don't have any extension other than ublock origin on Chromium: Version 147.0.7727.116 (Official Build, ungoogled-chromium) Arch Linux (64-bit)<p>So why is chromium trying to open perplexity.com?<p>I have opensnitch installed and every connection prompts to allow or deny, that is why I can find this requests.
I did use perplexity a few days ago, but sure it was before update, so pc was restarted.<p>This was made from /usr/lib/chromium/chromium.<p>Even /usr/lib/firefox/browser/omni.ja is full of perplexity.ai crap, and some other sites, but that is shocking. I found perplexity mentions on Firefox, Librewolf and Thunderbird libs. But none for Chromium.<p>I know there is a aur/perplexity 1.5.1-2 client but I don't have it installed, as I don't have any account with them.<p>This is worst than a virus. I don't even know where to start to find evidence? Chromium code?
