Google-search – Google warning when searching for PGP keys

google-search

Why does google warn me when i search for PGP keys in a specific site? Does google think that I am Google Hacking?

When i do the same search for other websites Google just says that it found no search results, It usually will add the yellow warning when i search for keys on a security company website or Government website.

This is what I searched for.

"-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----" site:verisign.com

I gives me this warning with a yellow warning symbol.

but if i search for:

"-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----" site:example.com

It will give me this warning without the yellow symbol:

What does the yellow warning mean?

The yellow warning ! icon is presented when your search is in quotes (i.e. match [quasi-]exact phrase), and there are no matches for the phrase, and there are matches when the search is made without quotes (any word order). It only has to do with the results found for the site.

For instance, these queries:

"examples illustrative" site:example.com
"examples illustrative" site:verisign.com

will both return the warning ! and then results. On the other hand, these queries:

"erehwon illustrative" site:example.com
"erehwon illustrative" site:verisign.com

will not show the warning ! icon (nor any results). There's nothing special about "PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK".
