    Based on these ads, I do not trust the site anyway.

    Sketchy dark pattern ads

    Love the concept, though.

        Cm0002:

        waltzes into chat about deceptive links

        clicks a deceptive link

        realizes they have been deceived

        Cm0002: “No, it is the person who posted the deceptive link who is wrong”.

          Lmao, it’s less about the deception and more about where it led to 😂

          It’s true. If you recognize the URL enough to avoid it, then you’ve been rickrolled without even clicking it. Wirelessly brain rickrolled

          I don’t use yt on my phone. I was actually interested what op put behind the link. I thought it would be a rickroll, but yk, I had to click it. I know, it hurts me too, seeing other people suffer so many ads. Also this is my newest phone and I don’t have the time to spend tinkering around ad free stuff.

            Don’t have time, but have time to click suspicious links in case it’s a Rick roll?

      Link shorteners and redirectors, especially new and lesser-known ones tend to get caught in the fray with things like Google Safe Browsing (which FF uses as well) and Smart Screen.

      It’s because the original/shortened link gets reported and not the real/destination site. Then the domain (of the shortener/redirector) gets flagged, instead of the real site.

      This happened to me at work this very week, with a redirector service that’s a part of our email security stack. FF and Chrome were both blocking links that were safe, because the redirector service itself was classified as sus.

      Firefox on Android doesn’t even have the “ignore” option :(
