Did anyone else see that message "warning, visitiing this site may harm your computer" when you logged onto www.rawstory.com? I checked the Google report and there is NO specific issue reported, so I think the site may have been taken down maliciously. Any info? I can't find a contact link to contact raw story to ask them. If they have been taken down, it's one more indication that we are at war, already. _________________ "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction" - Dawkins |

I checked again at 7:30 and it seems to be working now, but with this comment:

Raw Story has been temporarily blacklisted without notification in a malware index.
We’ve detected no actual mal-ware on the site, nor have we received any specific reports. Our techies are working to resolve the issue and have re-submitted the site for review. |
I hope they catch the perpetrators of this. I also found out there is no way for us ordinary mortals to contact Google directly. _________________ "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction" - Dawkins |

Has anything of note been reported on rawstory.com lately that might explain unusual attention from FMR hackers and ne'er-do-wells?
I've noticed that ever since Mike's built up a full head of steam over the Occupy movement, his phone lines have gone doubleplus trippy with dropped calls.
Just wait until the folks over at Anonymous enter the fray on our side.  _________________

No reports of unusual hacking before this, at least I haven't seen any and I'm a daily user of that site.
I'll wager that the folks at Homeland Security are monitoring and tampering with Mike's phones. There is no other reasonable explanation, and they have the means and the motive. They are playing cat and mouse, and probably patting themselves on the back for being pains in the neck. But, as the saying goes, we shall overcome. _________________ "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction" - Dawkins |
