i'm not sure if this is the right place or not to rant but I thought it may help someone.

I went to log on to icmag this am on my chrome browser on my phone and it kept kicking me out to a suspicious site page by McAfee Mobile Security. When I clicked the more info button it says minimal risk but is flagged in the " Web category :Drugs". Problem is I don't even have McAfee installed.

I finally figured out it was a Verizon Security & Privacy App that is powered by McAfee. There is no option to allow certain websites only to turn " Web Security " on or off. I turn it off and the site loads fine. But It would be nice to have security for real dangers.

Oh well, Censorship at its best here in the US. I haven't checked but I'm sure Porn sites load fine but growing your own legal medicine is obviously a danger i wouldn't want to be exposed to.
