https://bit.ly/387FXHi lightning theory
Just to clarify, is this thread about the [Suspicous Link Removed] comment or about your blog?
Can you make two topics, one about the blog and one about the suspicious link as this is reallly hard to follow.

As I understand, the [suspicious link removed] comment happens fairly randomly. Sometimes the link stays, sometimes it goes. blockchain.com may get marked as a suspicious link as much as blockchain.info may get marked as suspicious.

Other day, I was working on my video tutorial topic: Idea: Courses [Video Tutorial 1.1.1 - Getting Started with Bitcoin Wallet]

Everything was just fine but after posting the contents I found out the URL for .com was replaced by [Suspicious link removed]. Ref: below bold text...

05' 27": Let's check it on www.blockchain.com (previously www.blockchain.info)
I actually figured out how to trick the system, although the link will not be a clickable link.

Anyway after doing some research I found out that the system actually replace any link which could be a phishing link with the text [Suspicious link removed]. I assume on the forum database there is a table which has the list of phishing addresses and once it matches with any of them then it removes the risky website url with [Suspicious link removed] text.

This is a very good step for the admin, this will reduce information hacking from the members. However, in this case I would say the admin got it wrong. Perhaps they have missed the announcement.
 
www.blockchain.com is actually the former www.blockchain.info. They have rebranded the domain from .info to .com. They announced the news on June 22, 2018 on their blog. In fact there were a small notice area on the top of the www.blockchain.info website that they are going to change the domain TLD soon.

Earlier this week we announced that we’ll be consolidating blockchain.info into blockchain.com to create a unified experience for our users

I tried to bring all the references for the admin and hope admin will have a look and fix the wrong entry on the database table.
