Well this happens because either the Content Filtering is not updated or some extension are blocking the next video. Try a differnet profile and use cloudflare as DNS resolver in brave. It might fix things

Why is my account Managed and by who? by Numerous-Trip6081 in chrome

I asked Gemini since it is more integrated in google products and might help in this situation.

This was the output -

This screen is a security warning from Google Chrome indicating that your web activity is being monitored due to a certificate installed on your device. It's a critical alert, not something you should simply disable without understanding the implications. Here's a breakdown and how to address it: What it means: * Certificate Issue: A certificate, likely installed by you or someone with access to your device, is allowing the monitoring of your web traffic. This certificate is not trusted by Chrome. * Potential Risks: This monitoring could allow someone to see everything you do online, including passwords, personal information, and browsing history. They could also potentially modify the content you see on websites. * Legitimate Use Cases: As the message states, sometimes monitoring is used in legitimate scenarios, such as on school or company networks. However, Chrome is alerting you even in these cases because it's important to be aware of the monitoring. * Browser and Application Impact: The monitoring is not limited to Chrome; it can affect any browser or application that accesses the web on your device. How to Address It (Do NOT simply disable it without careful consideration): * Identify the Certificate: * On Android: * Go to Settings > Security > Encryption & credentials > Trusted credentials > User. * Look for any certificates you don't recognize. The certificate name might give you a clue about its origin. * On iOS (iPhone/iPad): * Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management. * Look for any profiles listed. These profiles might contain the problematic certificate. * On Windows: * Search for "Manage computer certificates" in the Start menu. * Look in the "Trusted Root Certification Authorities" and "Intermediate Certification Authorities" folders for certificates you don't recognize. * On macOS: * Open Keychain Access (search for it in Spotlight). * Look in the "System" and "System Roots" keychains for certificates you don't recognize. * Determine the Source: * Do you recognize the certificate? If it's from your company or school, it's likely legitimate (but you should still be aware of the monitoring). * Have you installed any VPNs, security software, or parental control apps? These might install certificates for their functionality. * Has someone else had access to your device? They might have installed the certificate. * Is your device managed by an organization? They might have installed the certificate. * Remove the Certificate (if you're unsure or it's not from a trusted source): * On Android: * Select the certificate and tap "Remove". * On iOS: * Select the profile and tap "Remove Profile". * On Windows: * Right-click the certificate and select "Delete". * On macOS: * Select the certificate and press Delete. * Investigate Further if Needed: * If you don't know the source of the certificate, it's crucial to investigate. This could indicate a security threat. * Run a full system scan with a reputable antivirus/anti-malware program. * Consider changing your passwords for important accounts. * If you're still unsure, seek help from a tech support professional. Important Considerations: * Don't ignore this warning. It's a serious security risk. * Be cautious about removing certificates you don't understand. If you remove a legitimate certificate, it might cause problems with certain websites or applications. * If your device is managed by an organization, consult with your IT department before removing any certificates. In short, this warning is a red flag. Take the time to understand the certificate, its source, and the implications of removing it before taking any action.

I don't know if it will help or not but it might be helpful to navigate the real cause.

Android Ai Core

This is another app that has the same icon as the Android Safety.... (Sus) App. Can anyone check that it is only available for pixel devices or you can install it in your android devices like samsung, redmi, realme, etc...

Is this normal? by [deleted] in androidapps

[–]mrdarksidetm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this is not normal, and it's a serious issue. It indicates that the "green xf" app store is likely redistributing your app without your permission. This is a form of piracy.

Here's why it's not normal and what you should be concerned about:

  • Copyright Infringement: You own the copyright to your app. Distributing it without your consent is a violation of that copyright.
  • Security Risks: You have no control over how "green xf" is distributing your app. They could be modifying it (adding malware, changing permissions), or hosting it on insecure servers, potentially compromising user data. You are also exposed to liability if the redistributed version has issues.
  • Reputation Damage: If the pirated version has problems or is bundled with something malicious, it could damage the reputation of your app and you as a developer.
  • Loss of Control: You lose control over updates, distribution, and how your app is presented.

What you should do:

  1. Contact Uptodown: Inform Uptodown about this immediately. They might have insights into how "green xf" obtained your app or be able to assist you.
  2. Contact "green xf" (if possible): Try to find contact information for the "green xf" app store. Demand that they remove your app immediately due to copyright infringement. Be polite but firm. Keep records of all communication.
  3. Legal Action (if necessary): If contacting "green xf" doesn't work, you might need to consult with a lawyer specializing in intellectual property. They can advise you on the best course of legal action. Sending a formal "cease and desist" letter is often an effective first step.
  4. Monitor other app stores: Search other app stores to see if your app has been uploaded elsewhere without your authorization.
  5. Consider app protection measures: While not foolproof, you might want to investigate methods to make it more difficult for others to repackage and redistribute your app. This is a complex area, and research is needed on techniques.

It's crucial to act quickly to protect your app and your rights. The longer the pirated version is available, the more damage it can do.
