I just set up new security on my computer, and some of the stuff linked to pic8.co is being blocked due to trojan activity from the domain z.zz.fo.

What's up with that?

pic8 uploads to a variety of hosts.

Worth looking into. Got a link?

Check /s/pic8sub for malware related posts.

The culprit is one of the hosts (z.zz.fo)

Two examples are the recent posts from @anticlutchon /USNews.

If that host is too much of a hassle, I believe a wise decision would be to remove it from pic8's host list.

the z zz fo one or whatever the URL is throws up really weird security exceptions or bad tokens sometimes. It's loading fine for me right now, but I clearly recall odd behavior sometimes.

Uhhh... Note: I have NOTHING to do with pic8 or it's resultant image hosts.

Yeah, I'm not tryin' to pin anything on you. It's not just you. There have been pics from others that have been blocked---all from z.zz.fo---since I installed this a few hours ago.

I thought it may be worthy of some attention.

I'm not seeing any trackers, or anything suspicious.

Perhaps a case of censorship by anti-malware service?

Kind of like how Google and Microsoft occasionally label torrent sites as unsafe.

Could be, but I've noticed more and more poalrs reporting alerts from Malwarebytes.

Malwarebytes blocks sites like kiwfarms and others for political reasons.
