  1. This is ridiculous. Just 3 days after the "unknown malware" was declared gone, those clowns are back – with the very same "unknown". They cannot even name what they claim to have found.

    Again, if they want to have _real_ findings, they should simply scan their own domains…

  6. It is not our circus, so why do those clowns always come to us – at least twice a month? "Malware found on your website – but we have no clue what or where" 🤦‍♂️ Does anyone still trust that "service" for safe browsing?

    gitlab.com/-/snippets/4909577#

    I've stopped counting how many, but always false "positives". While I still get the daily spam/scam hosted at storage.googleapis.com (a site they do NOT scan. Guess they have their reasons. Just imagine them blocking themselves 🍿)

  11. Oh, the clowns are back in town 🤦‍♂️ Seems to be the same file as last time, I guess (that is: none)? Or do I misread their report? 🤔 Too much "AI" there, I guess – while much lack of NI? How comes that "service" is still in business?!?

  16. This incompetence is … olympic? Took them just 2 days to pop this up again. Instructions they give on how "to fix this problem":

    "Check the example URLs on the 'Security Issues' page in Search Console. Note that this page displays a list of samples and not an exhaustive list of problematic URLs."

    No, indeed no "exhaustive list". It's an EMPTY list, so this advice cannot even be followed 🤦‍♂️

    They shall be trusted to control safety of all Internet & devices? 🤯

  21. New month I guess? 4 weeks since the last fake alert? Can someone please shut down whatever produces all those false positives?!?

    Yupp, this time Goog claims we've been hacked. They just don't know where. So I've requested a review now, stating all indicated pages have been cleaned 🤷‍♂️

    Should you still use that "safe" browsing – consider switching it off. Or at least be very skeptic when it shows you something.

  31. Day 4 again, without any response. Quite a reliable service that: you can rely on it to let you wait. What does that run on, that it takes that long? An Arduino Pico? Needless to say that the alleged malware file does not even exist, and never was malicious.

    Filed another review request.

    Again: disable that stuff. Seems to have more false positives than real stuff. Especially as entire domains hosting the real stuff (like storage.googleapis.com) are excluded from scan.

  36. Day 4. A response, finally. The usual clown message: Review failed. Well, the "clown message" is the one in the attached graphic: They don't know themselves. Something something link, but they don't know which. Or, in other words: "These URLs host malware or unwanted software downloads: None". 🤦‍♂️

    If that's how reliable their services are, maybe they should NOT hold the keys to the entire Internet (and app stores)? 🤔

  41. I had filed a reevaluation request before I tooted this. 2 days later, no reply yet (why does their bot take THAT long?). Instead I hear, another "fine tool" kicked in: Play "Protect" refuses installation of the allegedly malicious app, and even uninstalls them AUTOMATICALLY, without asking you! github.com/sunilpaulmathew/App

    Another rather questionable tool you might consider to get rid of (unless you install a lot from "questionable sources").
