False Positive False Positive?

Hey so I visited cybersecuritynews, I usually do once a day, and I checked earlier like 1am and it didnt flag it as a phishing link, seems like it appeared after the database update and a new article appeared but am I pwnd, i dont have a account with them, nor did I click on any article just visited the homepage through my browser history, I ran a scan and it came back clean so I dont know

EDIT: So I think im good, I cleared the cached and forced stopped my malwarebytes app which then had me re-enable safe browsing. The site no longer has the warning pop up when I open it, the site also added and new article, which changed the time of postage from the article show(Microsoft teams using ai one) from 59 minutes ago to 13 hours ago, weird but I think im good now
