>Google’s Ads Security team uses Safe Browsing to make sure that Google ads do not promote dangerous pages.
This is already wrong in my experience. I had a coworker panicking two weeks ago because he googled youtube and clicked the first link. Which turned out to be a fake ransomware page ad designed to get you to call a scam call center.
There is no such thing as a safe ad anymore because no one is policing them appropriately. Especially if something like this can happen when searching a service google themselves owns.
