I know the probability that peds online is owned by HSUS or some other despicable group but I've been seeing warning pop ups on my phone when I log on. Anyone else have this issue and if so, what the hell is it all about?

Ditto, same here.
I was just about to start a similar thread since I noticed this malfunction three or four days ago. Besideds the full page red warning by Mozilla Firefox that I get when I directly want to open one of my bookmarks which are linked to apbt.online-pedigrees.com or copy and paste a link to this database into a new tab, I also get a warning from Google which says that a visit to this site may harm my PC and the tab's name is "malware".
The funny part about it is that I have no problem to open a link to apbt.online-pedigrees.com using Microsoft Internet Explorer. Also the search engine bing.com (Microsoft) doesn't issue a warning.
However, my anti-virus software doesn't utter a peep and it is hypersensitive to all kinds of malware, robots, viruses, etc., you name it as it has blocked a few inoffensive websites in the past. Also I have adjusted my anti-virus software's firewall to the highes level of protection. Nevertheless I sent in the URL of the APBT Online Pedigrees database to them and have them inspect the URL for malware. I will post the results here as soon as I know more which will maybe take a few days.
Isn't that what most people who own this wonderful breed like to do best? LOL. I mean to bash one another. LOL
Ditto! APBT Online Pedigrees was and still is absolutely essential in building this database. Without them TPBB wouldn't exist the way it does in my opinion. No disrespect! That's partially because of the sad fact that the people who entered the dogs/pedigrees on APBT Online Pedigrees didn't join TPBB yet. I think to a big amount that's due to the fact that people don't know of TPBB and its advantages/or they don't like CA Jack (although Brickface is now the new owner). Others are too lazy to enter all their dogs again now on TPBB and are the type of "I always did it like that and I will stick with it". Also there are the ones who have a dual subscription.
Yep, that's right. As much as I like TPBB for sure APBT Online Pedigrees isn't lying on its deathbed. Quite the opposite in my opinion.
Nut, there's a "Ignore this warning" button at the lower right-hand corner of the full page red warning from Mozilla Firefox. Klick on it and you will be able to visit APBT Online Pedigrees.

PedsOnline was a great concept, and you have to give its originator credit for the idea
When it first came out, it truly was a great advent for our breed and the understanding of it
However, the truth of the matter is, Marco (its originator) had ZERO dog knowledge and offered nothing but a good idea (and a basic platform) in which to store dog data ... and, as such, Marco had to rely on "others" for actual dog knowledge, photographs, history, articles, etc.
Back in the day (~2000), Marco came to me for assistance with his project. When he did, Marco was respectful, and he politely asked to use my articles, my photos of dogs--my own line, those I had taken of Patrick's dogs, as well as those I had taken of Hollingsworth's dogs.
While many other well-known kennels (including some parasitic members of this site) have outright stolen my historical images (direct images, screen-grabbed from my videos, etc.), placing them on their sites, as if "they" took these images ... Marco of PedsOnline never did this. Marco had the class and dignity to directly ask me for my images, for which I thanked him and allowed him to use, no charge.
For this reason, I have nothing bad to say about the man. He had a great idea and he conducted himself with class in achieving it.
That said, Marco never offered any insight or legitimate knowledge of his own to his paying members. He basically collected money, and allowed a "free for all" on his site, subject to the whims of his (non-accomplished) moderators.
The best technical, medical, and other offered expertise on Marco's site has always come from me ... or from people copying and pasting articles they got from me.
As good as Marco's idea was, he has never bred a winner, let alone 2-decades' worth at an 87% win ratio.
The simple fact is, if 1000 dogmen had a critical problem with a dog of theirs, 1000 would contact ME for counsel as to "what to do," while ZERO would contact Marco.
And, now that I have created **this site ** ... as far as "full functionality" of computer databases go (historical records, photos able to be stored, and statistical data harvested) this site here is THE BEST pit bull site that has ever been created or even considered.
When people take their precious time to add photos, add data, etc. to *THIS* site ... it counts for something ... inputting data here provides harvestable, statistical data for ALL ... it ADDS TO HISTORY ... whereas wasting the same time entering dog info onto PedsOnline ... doesn't do a GD thing ... PedsOnline stores NOTHING USEFUL, for anyone.
Therefore, in this day and age, for those dogmen who actually care about this breed, and have the brains to appreciate it, who gives a shit about PedsOnline?

Was having the same problem myself. I get a full page red warning saying the site has some seriously bad malware. Best to stay off of it till problem is resolved if it gets resolved. I was using it for a source of pedigree comparisons to help fix or add pedigree info to this site.
What ever has hacked that system, hope it does not get it's Malware etc. into this system. Cheers
I won't renew my account. It's straight garbage now. It use to be informative but now it's just who you can bash
I have never joined that site and likely never will. Only reason I even use it is to google and look up peds. There are many dogs that I look up that are not in this system. If they were then I wouldn't even know what pedsonline was.
MOFOS ALWAYS WANT TO HACK SOME SHIT. WELL IF IT'S "A REAL PROBLEM" THEY NEED TO GET THAT FIXED CAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'RE GONNA GIVE FOLKS BACK THOSE DAYS THAT ARE BEING MISSED BECAUSE FOLKS DON'T WANT TO GO ON THE SITE FOR FEAR OF BEING HACKED.
