Has this impacted your self hosted instances of Immich? Are you hosting Immich via subdomain?

Immich users flag Google sites as dangerous
I got a ‘dangerous site’ warning and then prompts for crap on my Vaultwarden instance (didn’t see it on Immich but this was a while ago). I think I had to prove I owned the domain with some DNS TXT records then let them “recheck” the domain. It seems to have worked.
Fuck you google. I can’t see youtube videos with my browser because google wants me to sign in. Tells me it is protecting the community.
BULLSHIT.
Because google doesnt make me sign in to view or edit someone elses google docs they are sharing. Which one is more important google? Assholes.
I can’t see youtube videos with my browser because google wants me to sign in. Tells me it is protecting the community.
I’m guessing the videos are age restricted 18+ videos? You don’t have to be signed in to watch any other videos.
No, not age restricted.
Happens most frequently with using any VPN, which we use all the time at work and I often use at home or while traveling.
But sometimes it just does it without.
I think most people are signed into their gmail account or have been recently so the cookie is set. It’s crazy when you don’t have one how hard Google pushes you.
YouTube doesn’t force you to sign in unless the content you’re trying to watch is 18+. That’s just how it works. Your IP address makes no difference.
I’m not signed in to YouTube. Ever. On any device. I have never been forced to sign in to watch anything that wasn’t age restricted.
How should I prove this to you then? You are wrong, it is not just age content.
I could make a short video, or screen capture, but that’s more effort than it’s worth.
I am telling you, this happens all the damn time and it’s getting annoying.
Find a video that asks you to sign in that isn’t 18+ or private.
I could make a short video, or screen capture, but that’s more effort than it’s worth.
That’s really zero effort since it “happens all the damn time”
So weird you should argue about this. Do you always tell people “that doesnt happen to me so it doesn’t happen to you”. Why would I lie about it?
Why are you such an asshole?
This is my constant experience with youtube. which happened today while I was checking on the hurricane in Jamaica.
I tell people things that what they’re saying is wrong when it is wrong.
All you had to say was that it thinks you’re a bot, and then this whole thing could have been avoided. Which vpn are you using?
Nope, sometimes it asks for normal videos as well, it really depends on the case since there’s a lot of background stuff happening, making the experience vary between users.
Google, protecting you from privacy
Also protecting you from the East Wing of the White House.
Google protecting Google from FOSS.
They’re right too, after using Immich I don’t want to go back.
Google is dangerous.
Deadly to their margins by 0.000000000000000000000000000000000001%
Google flags F-Droid updates…
Why would people have Google security going on if they have set up F-Droid as their appstore? Doesn’t that defeat the entire purpose?
Like I understand that if I buy a phone from Apple, and they control everything on the phone and what I can install - well I mean I bought it from Apple, what else did I expect?
But I didn’t buy my phone from Google. They should have no say in what I could or couldn’t install.
I mean, I don’t think it matters if you bought the phone from Google or not (and you could have). Samsung or Motorola or whoever shouldn’t have any say either.
But I didn’t buy my phone from Google. They should have no say in what I could or couldn’t install.
You bought a phone running a Google operating system, knowingly so. This one is on you buddy.
They’ve also started warning against android apps from outside repos. Basically they want to force people to use their ai-filled bullshit apps.
Similar issues were reported with aves libre early this week, maybe it’s related?
From the OP:
Google Safe Browsing looks to be have been built without consideration for open-source or self-hosted software. Many popular projects have run into similar issues, such as:
-
Jellyfin
-
YunoHost
-
n8n
-
NextCloud
I’m sure it’s all accidental and coincidental that open source project that rival Google just weirdly got flagged as being dangerous. Google also doesn’t know how this happened, it just did! Magic!
It probably is accidental, but they don’t care enough to fix the root problem
Uh huh.
Loads of scam projects on play store that rarely get taken down but a competitor on play store gets sabotaged. I’m sure it’s purely coincidental
Clearly their run-in with the DOJ and subsequent wrist-slap has emboldened them to new heights of anticompetitiveness.

Was also flagged recently.
In my case it was the root domain which is- Geofiltered to only my own Country in Cloudflare
- Geofiltered to only my country in my firewall
- Protected by Authelia (except the root domain which says 404 when accessing)
So…IDK what they want from me :p My domain doesnt serve public websites (like a blog) destined for public consumption…
The URLs mentioned in their blog article all have a wrong certificate (different host name).
I am sure if they fix it Google’s system would reclassify the sites as safe.
I think that marking things as “safe” could have more complications than this depending on their definition but I think you’re right that’s probably all this issue is. This is almost the only sane comment here. Everyone else seems to be frothing at the mouth and I’m guessing its a decent mix of not understanding much of how these systems work (and blindly running tutorials for those that do self host) and blind ideology (big companies are bad / any practice that restricts my personal freedom in any way is bad)
any practice that restricts my personal freedom in any way is bad
Yes? I don’t want to live in a world where giant companies decide what I can and cannot see. And big companies are bad, they act as pseudo governments that aren’t accountable to anyone, we used to break them apart before they started buying up politicians and political power.
Yeah, sure, 5 years after google flagged one of the sites i hosted, some firewalls (including isp-level blocks) mark the domain as unsafe. Google removed the block after more than a week but the stink continues until today.
It was also a development domain and we were forced to change it.
Stock using google. Don’t you know their motto? “Be evil”
Easier said than done, if your end users run Chrome. Because Chrome will automatically block your site if you’re on double secret probation.
The phishing flag usually happens because you have the Username, Password, Log In, and SSO button all on the same screen. Google wants you to have the Username field, the Log In button, and any SSO stuff on one page. Then if you input a username and go to start a password login, Google expects the SSO to disappear and be replaced by the vanilla Log In button. If you simply have all of the fields and buttons on one page, Google flags it as a phishing attempt. Like I guess they expect you to try and steal users’ Google passwords if you have a password field on the same page as a “Sign in with Google” button.
Firefox ingests Google SafeBrowsing lists.
If you are falsely flagged as phishing (like I was), then you are fucked regardless of what you use (except you use curl).I couldnt even bypass the safebrowse warning on my Android phone in Firefox.
OP is inpacted by Google SafeBrowsing which various websites use.
I smell fear.
I knew it was too good to be true when they give away free pic storage for their pixel phones. I just didn’t listen to my gut.
Google Safe Browsing looks to be have been built without consideration for open-source or self-hosted software.
IMO Google Save Browsing was built with consideration for open-source and self-hosted software, but it has nothing to do with user safety, just like blocking Android apps from 3rd party sites has nothing to do with user safety. The harder they make it to move away from their products by making using alternatives difficult, the more money they make and money is now the only objective. Even if this only adds a fraction of a fraction of a percent to their profit it’s something Google will implement.
The old social contract of businesses being of benefit to the community as a whole in addition to making a profit is long gone.
Google marks half the apps on my phone as dangerous. Google are evil xxxxxx’s
