> So you need a google quality malware detection filter to allow user content upload on your site? That's a pretty big barrier to entry.
No, but IF you allow people to anonymously upload malware to your site, Google-quality malware detection filters will absolutely do what they were designed to do and detect the malware on your site.
I just don't understand the people insisting on arguing that somehow this was a false positive. Google was right! This site was hosting malware! It's true it wasn't "intentionally" hosting malware, and that it was designed for benign purposes.
Which is to say, you are demanding that Google forgive this site automatically based on intent and not evidence. And sadly, while Google may have Google-quality malware detection filters, they haven't yet cracked the nut of thought crime detection.
