Yes, Google, we know there is crap on the internet but…
January 31st, 2009
For about almost an hour this afternoon Google screwed things up a little by labelling all of the internet as Malware. It was certainly a little alarming and a bit annoying as I would use Google *alot* and even in that short space of time. The link which resulted from every search result was a simple page staying that the “web site may harm your computer” and a few links, none of which were the site I wanted, nor did they work anyway.
After realising that it was affecting the whole of the Internets I thought, well, why not have some fun with it:
Shortly afterwards Google explained what happened on their own blog that it was simply a human error with the misplacement of a ‘/’ and all normality was resumed.
