Guys. 😄 After I tried switching from Brave/Firefox browsers to Chrome (Google's browser), Google (Safe Browsing) labeled my sites as unsafe with a big red page. 😄 They said that to remove the warning, I need to add their TXT records to the DNS records of my domain names I rent, such as `kalvin.my` and `lamin.my`. 😄 The purpose of this is to verify my domain ownership. 😄☀️ I think I will do this only if I find that the domain name reflects or has the same vibe as myself.
