I wasn't referring to me whitelisting sites, the tooltip wasn't an issue for me.
But for legitimate communities building honest software (or any honest product, really), it can be harmful to have potential users/contributors being scared off by a message like this. At the very least, it can make visitors question the legitimacy of the product. Since ReactOS has been around for decades at this point, it seems as if they're suffering a penalty for not being as popular as ReactJS, which is kind of bullshit, if there's no way for ReactOS (and other legitimate companies which may be affected) to let Google know "hey, we're doing our own thing, would you please mind not scaring potential users away". Whether or not I use Chrome, at least 60% of Internet users do. And I've never seen a warning when visiting reactjs.org asking if I didn't actually mean reactos.org, so the axe doesn't swing both ways here.
