This scares me. I have a .dev domain, though managed through Cloudflare. I feel like I should get another from another gTLD not owned by Google...
What do you all think, are the .dev domains safe enough?

At work we had an entire .dev domain nuked at the registrar level by google because a developer generated some traffic google didn't like on a subdomain. They replaced the ENTIRE domain with a google phishing warning page with no way to bypass to get to the actual site.
It took multiple days to resolve the phishing false positive and restore the domain, if it had been our main domain it would have a major emergency at work.
I'd rather not have to worry about some algorithm deciding to throw a fit and locking me out without any chance of recourse other than hoping a Googler reads my woes on Twitter or Hacker News. So I guess I wonder about some requirements from ICANN or some guarantees in this regard from Google
