Why is a page of a Sassy game labeled as dangerous?

Post by LittleMissNyan »

I was reading Scioly Assassination 72: Pandora's Box and was going to click on the icon thing for page 3 (viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2819&start=30) and I got this

(I have a screenshot but I don't know where to host it so I just copy-pasted the thing)

My Chromebook has a lot of school policies, but nothing unusual. I can go to page 4 and other pages of the game without any problems! What's wrong?
