This is why it's 5 or 10 domains instead of just 1. You just need to list every domain you actually use.

Heck, why not list all the domains? Put that list in the app store.

Have you looked at the average website recently? Plenty of sites make requests to far more than five or even ten domains.

What does "allowed to talk to" mean in practice? Off the top of my head, either you only check the domains of URLs that are explicitly navigated to (too lax, easily circumvented) or you check the URLs of literally every request (too strict, many developers would not be able to load their own sites).
