@ericlaw I never said chrome was enforcing censorship. I said it was blocking the Open Web. I stand by my statement and I have no influence.

@mollydotcom In your FB post, you say warning is "Google is [...] not allowing YOU to participate in what MIGHT BE illegal file sharing."

@ericlaw I realize my feelings are even stronger about this than I thought. Yes. I am questioning Google's motives. You are right.

@mollydotcom ...then I think your central argument should be usnews.com/news/articles/201…, rather than misrepresenting what Safe Browsing is.

@mollydotcom I actually like the chrome safe browsing implementation. Too many outdated Wordpress sites get hacked without owners knowledge

@kenhowardpdx Safe browsing is fine. Open Web suggests it be a) less obtrusive than a full page block and b) OFF by default rather than on.

@mollydotcom @kenhowardpdx I'd be interested to hear/see suggestions for less obtrusive warnings that *still work*.

@nerdworldorder @kenhowardpdx To begin, maybe a safety switch icon created and conventionally placed in a browser's chrome and preferences?

@mollydotcom Users who type domain names into google's search box tend to ignore the browser chrome in general, other than the back button.

Web browsers require our collective intelligence to be both open AND safe. A problematic loop desperately seeking escape! / @nerdworldorder
