This is Luke Zimmermann from VOX Media, the parent company of The Verge and SB Nation. We've requested a formal review with Google after going to extreme steps to pull our advertising content to both do a thorough review and error on the side of caution that there wasn't anything malicious being inadvertently served up. At this time we're doing everything we can to get this on Google's radar and get it sorted out. We're continuing to monitor the situation as well and do everything in our power to make sure none of our readers and users are at any risk.
FYI: SBNation is the main property of VOX Media that owns The Verge.<p>Something nasty must've gotten onto their CDN, but it wasn't necessarily from The Verge - since they operate a significant amount of websites - it's just that The Verge was using their parent company's resources.
The alert says that theverge.com itself is not blacklisted just contains stuff from infected sites.<p>I would try setting a new hostname for the cdn content servers and see if that works. Assuming of course they have gotten rid of the malware.
I hope this doesn't set back the launch of Polygon. We've already been waiting for months, and according to Press Reset (their making-of documentary for the site), it's supposed to launch in October.
