Google has a transparency report tool. Every owner of the website or anybody can check the transparency status of any website. The search giant wrote the motto of the tool as "Google’s Safe Browsing technology examines billions of URLs per day looking for unsafe websites. Every day, we discover thousands of new unsafe sites, many of which are legitimate websites that have been compromised. When we detect unsafe sites, we show warnings on Google Search and in web browsers. You can search to see whether a website is currently dangerous to visit."

A Reddit user found that Google's transparency tool is thinking Google.com is a partially dangerous site. A short description is also written below of the status and it is "Some pages on google.com contain deceptive content right now."


At the bottom of the webpage, under the more information section, it is saying "Don't panic. Users sometimes post bad content on websites that are normally safe. Safe Browsing will update the safety status once the webmaster has cleaned up the bad content."

WP considered it as some website might have used Google's miscellaneous services to host different types of content and the owner can not check it out.

We found live.com, tumblr.com, cnet.com also are partially dangerous. It seems that the tool is not perfect at all. If you find any others are not normal, just share with us.

CNET.COM


LIVE.COM
Tumblr.com
