I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I haven't seen it answered anywhere. More than a year ago, I was asking Ask Ubuntu about having a desktop shortcut to Google Calendar on Ubuntu 20.04. I received a few answers, but I was unable to get them to work. I confessed my ignorance of computer use and got some more suggestions, which I still couldn't implement, so I gave up. Then a few days ago, I got a new answer:

You can use Calendar Indicator instead.

To download it type these lines in terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/atareao sudo apt update sudo apt-get install calendar-indicator

When I tried to install the downloaded app, Google blocked it, saying it is unsafe. When I clicked on the Calendar Indicator pop-up's Privacy link, the site could not be found. I'm now wondering if I've been sent to a dangerous download, or is it just Google wanting to control everything? Is there anything Ask Ubuntu can do to keep malicious links out? If a bad link is posted, will someone notice it and send an alert?
