Google Marks Whole Internet Malware

· · 🌡️ 13°F

Seems to be fixed now. stopbadware.org was down this morning (which Google partners with to warn of bad sites), and Google defaulted to marking everything as malware, even itself.

UPDATE

Unfortunately (and here's the human error), the URL of '/' was mistakenly checked in as a value to the file and '/' expands to all URLs. -- Google Blog

    Wow! I noticed that this morning when I was searching for images using google. Whenever I clicked on an image to go to the originating site it would say the site was harmful. I kept wondering why all the pictures came from bad sites.
