Just to give a start to some conspiration theories (the following is just my imagination): Somebody (for example, authors of other cnc controllers or ultra-loyal users of some other cnc controller) might not like LinuxCNC becoming more popular, so getting Google to think that site is infected means that Google will tell that to any potential LinuxCNC user (exactly the way original poster pointed out). It would lead to some potential users find other cnc controller more attractive and would affect overall impression about this application.
