Huh. And I can't even report a false detection.

The form just errors out, in Google, Firefox. Privacy things disabled.

I removed the protocol and last slash from the URL and it worked.

"False positive. Site does not ask for info and is clearly comedic in nature."

So effectively making it not a URL anymore despite being what the form asks for, that’s just great


Odd, I couldn't report it as a false positive the first time either, but then I tried again with dev tools open and it worked.


I think you have to fill in "additional details" field for it to work. I did it and it worked alright


Oh, I wouldn't have thought to submit the report without filling that in.

The console has: "service error: RpcError"

The POST hangs up before it completes, and it seems to be because the JS can't lift a auth token for my Google account, maybe.
