No VPN. ISP is Comcast in USA. My OS is Windows 7, not sure if it considers that to be shady. Was using "Pale Moon" web browser at first. Then I tried in different browsers and had similar results in Chrome and Firefox.

Windows 7 hasn't received security updates for ages. Your machine is probably part of seven bot nets.

Your OS has been out of mainline support for over a decade. Out of extended support for 6 years. No wonder it's tripping security flags left and right, you're entire machine is a walking security disaster. Well past time to move to a modern OS. You can't ask for support for an OS that's been out of support longer than Lemmy/Anubis has even existed.
