Thanks for the bug report. We're continuing to tune our cyber safety classifiers to make them more accurate. You can read more about this here. If you see this again in the future and believe it's a false positive (i.e. you aren't doing anything related to cybersecurity), please use the
/feedbackslash command and choose "Safety Check" to report it. That will help us further tune our checks.
