Attn Staff: Google says Gravatar site may be hacked
-
Since Gravatar support is closed, I thought I drop a note in here to let staff know that Google has flagged gravatar.com with a “This site may be hacked.” warning. Here’s a screenshot: https://cloudup.com/cC_Kl4trGJK

Basically, while Gravatar wasn’t hacked, Google thought someone’s profile was spammy and assumed it was hacked. We fixed that one, but they’re finding others they don’t like. We’ll keep working on this. Cheers!

Still in progress? How many accounts are being considered “spammy”? Sounds a bit concerning to me…

Basically, if someone creates a profile then links to a website Google doesn’t like, they’re flagging the entire site instead of just that profile. We are working on a fix. :)
