Google Now Bans Some Linux Web Browsers From Their Services
Google is now banning the popular Linux browsers named Konqueror, Falkon, and Qutebrowser from logging into Google services because they may not be secure.
It is not known when Google started blocking these browsers, but a user discovered this ban yesterday and posted about it on Reddit.
In tests conducted by BleepingComputer, we can confirm that we were unable to log in with Konqueror or Falkon on multiple machines. When attempting to do so, we were told to try a different browser as Konqueror or Falkon may not be secure.
