The Same-Origin Policy restricts how documents and scripts from different origins can interact to prevent security risks.

Using Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers allows controlled access to resources from different origins.

Requests may be blocked due to different schemes, hosts, or ports. Using HTTPS and proper CORS policies can help.

No, this tool only simulates how browsers enforce the Same-Origin Policy for learning and debugging purposes.
