Safe Browsing

Post by emattson »

Suppose your friend send you a link and you are not confident that it's safe. One way to test is open:
https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search

This is a Google Transparency Report web page that allows you to enter an URL and it will tell you if it's safe or not. I find this useful when checking links that people submit to this forum. Type the URL on the "Search by URL" line and click the search magnify glass icon to find out.
