Hello and thanks for reaching out, I can help answer this as a Pogo Player myself.

"pogo bowl is being blocked by noeton as a url blacklist websight. why?"

This block is coming from antivirus filtering, not from Pogo. Antivirus companies update their blacklists regularly, and sometimes legitimate sites get flagged by mistake.

That is why all antivirus vendors provide a false-positive reporting process on their websites. If a site is incorrectly flagged, the report and correction have to go through the antivirus company’s review process, since Pogo cannot change or override those detection rules.

🌟How to report it, get it investigated and corrected - through them:

AVG Users: False Positive File Form

Norton Users: Choose Your Sample Submission Type | Norton

Avast Users: Report False Positive

McAfee Users: How to submit false positives to McAfee | McAfee Support

Bitdefender: Incorrect Detection: Report a false positive or false negative to Bitdefender

If you read my comments and other players comments below a fix and guidance has been given, I am not experiencing warnings or blocks of any kind.

    Hello! 🙂 Of course, it's not a "false claim" from a player!
    
    The antivirus is the one reporting an error. It’s not you, and it’s not Pogo. It’s a detection made entirely by a third-party antivirus company.
    
    You may hear the term “false positive” in medical testing, quality control, machine learning, and cybersecurity. In all of these fields, a false positive means the system incorrectly identifies something as a problem when it actually isn’t.
    
    Please take a moment to notify your antivirus provider about the issue. I have already compiled and shared all the necessary reporting links to streamline the process for everyone. It typically involves a simple false-positive reporting form.
    
    Thanks for posting, I’m sure others might wonder what this “false positive” is about.
