Facepunch is now being reported as an “attack page” by Google.
And this is the report: http://safebrowsing.clients.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?client=Firefox&hl=en-US&site=http://www.facepunch.com/
That’s funny because it worked just fine yesterday. I wish I knew what caused it.
What’s worse is if I just shrug it off and say “ugh.. this site isn’t an attack site! Let me in!”, it rams “OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS SITE IS DANGEROUS!!!” down my throat. So I have no way of knowing what the fuck happened.
The site is still up, and somehow I managed to finally get in. Found out I wasn’t the only one, yet the admins weren’t telling us to not panic or anything like there was really nothing to worry about.
I knew there wasn’t anything to worry about. I know Facepunch is the land of bannings and shit, but never an attack site.
To this time, no one really knows what caused it. Some have actually reported getting a virus from Facepunch, but most of those claims turned out to be false.
I haven’t had an issue, and usually my copy of Avast! can sniff out a virus a mile away. Plus I have Adblock Plus and NoScript.
