I have recently been getting the following message from the USG 200 Flex:

1.foreground.work:Malicious Sites, SSI:N

The whole thing seems to be related to Youtoube when YT channels are open in the browser.

Do I need to worry about this?

Thank you for your assessment.

    Thank you very much for your comments. Then I'm reassured, but it's strange that this is happening so often right now, it seems as if YouTube has changed something. 🤨
