"safebrowsing.clients.google.com" is good for monkeys
Ah yes, from the dummys that brought you stupid comes the latest "safe" technology. I noticed that a few sites with subdomains on the 8k.com domain (a domain offered by one of the web's longest running web hosting providers, Freeservers) saw a precipitous drop in traffic. I thought, "ok, maybe Goigle's duncing again"... but didn't think much more of it... until now. I notice that all subdomains on 8k.com are being redirected through something called "safebrowsing.clients.google.com" which I guess is the new goon squad on the web. I guess these monkeys haven't heard of subdomains. Good job, you blocked off a massive chunk of the legitimate and useful web because some anti-social sysadmin or numskull exec decided they hadn't made enough noise in a meeting. Wow--hey that red button that says "blow up the world"... please, please don't push it!
