Is gstatic.com safe to whitelist on a secure network? (lemmy.world)

We're installing a new app on a secure network. The vendor has requested we allow access to gstatic.com. That seems overly broad to me and unsafe. Thoughts?

Depends on how secure your seecure network is, but generally speaking I wouldn't allow it. As you said, it's way to broad and gives away control of what is loading and what comes on your network.
