+Mozilla::PublicSuffix provides a single function that returns the public suffix
+of a domain name by referencing a parsed copy of Mozilla's Public Suffix List.
+From the official website at http://publicsuffix.org:
+
+A "public suffix" is one under which Internet users can directly register names.
+Some examples of public suffixes are .com, .co.uk and pvt.k12.wy.us. The Public
+Suffix List is a list of all known public suffixes.
+
+A copy of the official list is bundled with the distribution. As the official
+list continues to be updated, the bundled copy will inevitably fall out of date.
+Therefore, if the bundled copy of found to be over thirty days old, this
+distribution's installer provides the option to check for a new version of the
+list and download/use it if one is found.
