There is a zero percent chance that Jason would ever do something like this intentionally.
The guy is 100% square honest.
Please be careful of the comments.

He is not kidding, maybe not using the right words... ;-)

Google scans websites in search for maliciuous software.
If it thinks it has found something, the site is put on a (black-)list.
Firefox (if set up to do so), Google Search (and I think some
virusscanners with built-in "internet-protection") scan this list on
Google and will popup warnings if the requested site is found.

On the Lazarus site at freepascal.org, there was a similar issue.
Someone posted a file that contained traces of malicious software. It
took a couple of days before the webmaster managed to remove the site
from Googles list.

Google just scans the sites, it cannot tell if malicious code is put
there on purpose or by accident. It might even not be sure if the found
code really is malicious or just resembles something malicious.

The question if we like Google to do this might be worth another
discussion. In the meantime people might be scared of to visit the site
in question and the owner should take care that his site is removed from
Google's list. Instructions on how to do that can be found via the link
that is provided in the popup-warning.

Surely no-one on this list is accusing Jason of putting garbage on his site.

cheers
John
