This is problematic because anything on your web pages might now influence unrelated answers. You could have outdated information on some forgotten page, or contradictory details across different sections. Google’s AI might grab any of this and present it as the answer. If you allow user-generated content anywhere on your site (like forum posts or comments), someone could post fake support contact info, and Google might surface that to users searching for how to contact your company. Now scammers have a direct route to your customers.
OH FUUUUUUN
Tell me about it. I am now the owner of Lemmy.world 😆
Of course everyone knows the support number for lemmy.world is 867-5309
6-7
Oh weird, that’s also the number for the antifa head office
I can’t believe the CEO of Antifa stole Jenny’s number
You’re not going to believe this, but they didn’t. Jenny got radicalized over the last 40ish years

None of those things would be Google’s fault, would they?
They are stripping the context and presenting the misinfo as authorative.
Ironically, I can’t connect to that site
Can you explain? Is the website down or you are unable to login?
Can’t connect to server. Probably my VPN or a DNS issue.
I disabled all of Cloudflare “features” because it’s wrong most of the time. I sent you a message, would be interested to see why this is happening.
So I’m currently at work, where we use Fortinet, which is blocking your website for “Phishing”.
Before that, your website made my browser ring the alarm with the error “net::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID”.
You might want to look into those two.
The certificate issue is weird since it’s handled by Cloudflare and I can see a valid one.
Th fortinet one. I had a similar issue with a different ISP in the US. I am not sure what’s triggering their firewalls/systems but one guess is that it’s dumb and interpreting codeinput as something that has to do with hacking.
