Below (near the bottom) is the list server's response to my post.
My post was:
Many websites are pushing javascripts into our machines via the browsers
we use, and our browsers blithely execute these scripts and some of these
scripts install malware without our being aware of it, let alone with our
permission.
To wit, I gleaned the following from
http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=googleusercontent.com
*Has this site acted as an intermediary resulting in further
distribution of malware?*
Over the past 90 days, googleusercontent.com appeared to function as
an intermediary for the infection of 16 site(s) including
webinitiatesystems.com/ beerilove.com/ ocadesburkina.org/
*Has this site hosted malware?*
Yes, this site has hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.
It infected 290 domain(s), including natv.ig.com.br/ , adcod.in/ ,
bit.ly/
-----------------------------------------------------
Not allowing some of such javascripts will make the web site visited
somewhat or totally non functional (such as searching the web site for
something).
How come the authorities are not prosecuting the owners of websites that
push such javascripts?
