Both of those websites for launch calendars rely on 3rd party script servers to show relevant information. I never trust websites to proxy like that. It is like going to the grocery store but they require you to phone a car dealership salesman to get the prices of all items. Not your fault, just say nominalized criminals are still criminals even when they get away with it unnoticed by most people. I have a firewall that makes it blatantly obvious when anyone does this, so I avoid them.
Which ones? Dateful and…?
Are there significant risks to the end user? I think it somewhat unlikely that a website whose sole function displays a date could be engaged in criminal activity.
Are there any alternative sites you would recommend?
