Interesting, I have been in this line of thinking. Google has been as cavalier about user data as the rest except that it has the holier-than-thou attitude. Made the painful move back to firefox on all my computer after being used to Chrome

yeah, cloud is one of those terms used,overused and abused to a point that it can mean anything. In this context, the "Personal Cloud" means "Public Cloud" like functionality(basically data residing somewhere and your me

Yes that is precisely the problem (and one that is probably in the interest of government and companies.. just not in the interest of the actual owner of data). Even companies like google providing cloud services like music/mail/

The problem has always been abuse of laws that simply don't move fast enough to keep up with the changing times .Companies with deep pockets to fund lawyers will always take advantage of the laws that were written for a different time

Unfortunately, There is no way to avoid NSA type surveillance.. without or without "Personal Clouds". I guess It does help reduce the footprint, but with the move to think clients (like mobile devices) and Cloud backends, I am afr

Yes. I believe it has been added to a temp whitelist. But it is not clear if is domain based or somekind of signature based. If it is domain based, then whitelisting is not useful (This is hosted on various domains as noted by others). If

I agree (and have posted in this very thread) that having controls for detecting spam/fraud is good. Also, I have posted that the primary problem is, no way to either a) avoid this problem by adhering to some guidelines b) no way to di

Even though this looks like a troll attempt, lets try this. The problem is 1. No clarity on what constitutes a problem. 2. No way to officially contact to clear up a problem resulting in possible irreparable loss of business. So, if you ins

@hiddenfeatures Yes. Lets apply this everywhere. Lets electrocute folks based on "heuristics" because there are no other way to find out "bad guys". It is nice to act as an arbiter and spout philosophy isn't it? If

It is because this domain has been added to whitelist which is now overriding it [5760:1799:0701/150256:VERBOSE2:phishing_classifier_delegate.cc(211)] Phishy verdict = 1 score = 0.548927 [5751:1799:0701/150256:VERBOSE2:client_side

Interesting! I guess most phishing guys have this on their URL and in their page. Therefore it MUST mean that every page with those keys are phishing... just great. Chrome user$ grep phish chrome_debug.log | grep -e "UrlPath" -e

@alternize That, precisely is the issue. We can only speculate as to what might be good or bad. There is no way to really know is correct (and infact why is it even the business of a browser to determine that). In a lot of situation, it is

Here is the output snippet. Basically some "algorithm" thinks it has found phishyness with some score above 0.5 and flags it. No clue as to what caused it (We know that it can be triggered by simply changing the name of the "

While I think chrome having strong anti fraud protection built in is nice, the fact that there is no way to understand what constitutes "correct behavior" and no clear way to get clarification is appalling. It is essentially engi
