Google site protection IDing Filesharingtalk as an unsafe site harboring phishing

[banyon]

turned my "Malicious Site Detection" off and it works again but I was a little startled by this. Kept me away for a little. Went there through my iPhone cause chances of infection are small on an iPhone and saw the forum post about this. But if you can't get to the forum to see what this is, then you will stay away. If I had accesses this with a PC then I would have stayed away for sure.
No idea what you can do about this but this is not good.
And thanks Caballero for all you do. Don't know if people appreciate this enough. I do.

True, and that's what I'm afraid will happen with many other people.

RealitY hasn't replied to my e-mail so far.

Wow, Google actually sent a pop-up this time asking if there were any sites that they were incorrectly identifying as involving Phishing or malware.
I entered filesharingtalk.com and offered that this user has been accessing it safely for a half decade or more.
I hope that didn't put me on some future list for a demand service or a no-knock intrusion!
With this bingo coming to the white house, anything's possible.

Please stay where you are while the Google Street View car arrives to take you to Guantánamo

RealitY answered, he says a bit of the code for Yahoo's YUI library (used for some site features) is triggering this problem, and it's being worked on.

If I look at the details in Chrome, it says "This page is insecure (broken HTTPS)."

But we don't have HTTPS at all

Hence, thus, therefore: https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/201...n-https-sites/ ?

Google is punishing all non-HTTPS sites...although it's not supposed to start until January. But I also get the warning in Firefox with DDG as my search engine, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just turn off "malicious site detection" in your browser(s)

Just for added info in Chrome that is in settings, show advanced and un-tick "protect you and your device from dangerous sites".

Or you can just expand the warning page and click continue to site anyway thing at the bottom

I guess that's fair... not everything requires encryption, but "if you want a kitty ask for a horse" or something like that.
