Google, protecting you from privacy

The URLs mentioned in their blog article all have a wrong certificate (different host name).

I am sure if they fix it Google’s system would reclassify the sites as safe.

Google

I have identified the problem.

I smell fear.

Immich users flag Google sites as dangerous

Fuck you google. I can't see youtube videos with my browser because google wants me to sign in. Tells me it is protecting the community.

BULLSHIT.

Because google doesnt make me sign in to view or edit someone elses google docs they are sharing. Which one is more important google? Assholes.

Deadly to their margins by 0.000000000000000000000000000000000001%

Stop using google. Don't you know their motto? "Be evil"

Google marks half the apps on my phone as dangerous. Google are evil xxxxxx's

They've also started warning against android apps from outside repos. Basically they want to force people to use their ai-filled bullshit apps.

jellyfin had a similar issue too for a long time for servers exposed to the internet. google would always reblock the domains soon after unblocking them. I think they solved it in the latest update. Basically it's that google's scraping bots think that all jellyfin servers are a scam that imitate a "real" website.

Similar issues were reported with aves libre early this week, maybe it's related?

this is why you disable google "safe browsing" in librewolf and use badblock instead

Google flags F-Droid updates...

Why would people have Google security going on if they have set up F-Droid as their appstore? Doesn't that defeat the entire purpose?

Was also flagged recently.
In my case it was the root domain which is

1. Geofiltered to only my own Country in Cloudflare
2. Geofiltered to only my country in my firewall
3. Protected by Authelia (except the root domain which says 404 when accessing)

So....IDK what they want from me :p My domain doesnt serve public websites (like a blog) destined for public consumption...

Hopefully your Immich server isn't public facing...

I got a 'dangerous site' warning and then prompts for crap on my Vaultwarden instance (didn't see it on Immich but this was a while ago). I think I had to prove I owned the domain with some DNS TXT records then let them "recheck" the domain. It seems to have worked.

Google Safe Browsing looks to be have been built without consideration for open-source or self-hosted software.

IMO Google Save Browsing was built with consideration for open-source and self-hosted software, but it has nothing to do with user safety, just like blocking Android apps from 3rd party sites has nothing to do with user safety. The harder they make it to move away from their products by making using alternatives difficult, the more money they make and money is now the only objective. Even if this only adds a fraction of a fraction of a percent to their profit it's something Google will implement.

The old social contract of businesses being of benefit to the community as a whole in addition to making a profit is long gone.

Thanks for the recommendation on a FOSS Google Photos alternative. If Google blocks it that means it's good.

Another way Google exploits their monopoly for personal gain.

Good thing the government identified them as such and....did absolutely nothing about it.

"Accidentally" lol the best of intentions, but this nuts.

The question that needs to be asked, "why are you still using Chrome?"
