  Today I had a look at my Pi-hole block lists. When I wanted to check the GitHub page of the linked list I was greeted by big red warning telling me that this site want's me to install malicious software.

  Turns out this specific GitHub repository is flagged as malicious by Google Safe Browsing [1]. And now I am left wondering if that's intentional or a false positive. Even more confusing, reloading [1] sometimes changes the result to "No available data".
