What Hacker News says?

  1. We use Wordpress for our Blog but it's completely separated from our main website. I guess theoretically it could be infected but we don't distribute any software from there. https://blog.glasswire.com Google Webmaster Tools pointed specifically to our installer file that is rated as safe by VirusTotal.com.
