Is hosting web URLs at storage.googleapis.com a thing? After finding a persistent phishing campaign using it, I ended up restricting it from being loaded in the web browser in my environment. (Embedded images from it, like on blog.google, still work.)

This is the first time I've seen a legitimate website with one of these URLs.



Haha yeah, I have the same question... normally Google Buckets are hosted under storage.googleapis.com/[your bucket] not under a subdomain...


To get https don't you have to put a paid load balancer in front of it? At that point it's both more effort and costly than Netlify.


Perhaps it's not that costly (or you can circumvent costs) if you work at Google, like Justine does IIUC.


She did, but no longer. The project's github README:

> Justine Tunney currently isn't on the payroll of any company. She's been focusing on Cosmopolitan because she wants to give back to Free Software which helped her be successful.
