So when does robot slander/libel suits begin? I'd be mighty ticked if google started labelling my sites as malware when they're clearly not.

This is why we can't have nice things. Chrome was doing yeoman's work by stopping their users from going to a site that was malicious earlier today.
True, I usually wait until the facts are in, but I'm more curious about the question itself. At what point do semi-autonomous programs or constructs become liable for their words or actions.
it could be that their ads networks did in fact serve malware temporarily.
