Google and other large advertiser networks should be liable for malicious ads that they serve.

Great reason why ad blocking should not be disabled on the internet. If these companies keep trying to guilt people into disabling ads blocking then they should also be held liable for advertising that harms users whether it be malicious sites or harmful targeted advertising like gambling ads to addicts.

At the company I used to work for, I was the tech guy and my boss was not, he was a business guy (and a real estate appraiser).

I had to tell my boss never to click on “sponsored” Google results. I forget what piece of software he was searching for, but I didn’t want him downloading malware. Because I’ve seen lots of fake results like this before.

This was just the most sophisticated one I’ve seen.

It isn’t just KeePass, search for basically any software (like Firefox or VLC) and you’re likely to see a “sponsored” result that’s a scam/malware.
