We've been experimenting with web control lately and we noticed that it blocks certificate validity checks and marks them as file repositories. Is this normal behavior? Are these sites safe to whitelist in Web Control? I've posted a couple of log entries below.

Currently it falls in the "File repositories" category. You can suggest a more appropriate category through the form https://tools.zvelo.com/.
