Firefox blocked this site. It may install software that changes your homepage or injects extra ads. Google Safe Browsing flagged it.

People with money can have any site blocked in Firefox. Or anywhere else.

Firefox does not control that side of their content blocking setup. They use Google's malware/unwanted software system and list. Google is known to just randomly tag an entire site as malicious because 1 download on the site triggered some random antivirus warning on their end. It's why a lot of sites started password protecting many of their files years ago to get around the dumb automation blocks from Google.

Firefox's information about it can be found here:

Google's policy around this is found here:

For Cheat Engine, it's likely triggering again due to Cheat Engine's installer using an adware bundler.
