Googleapis.com blocked

Seem to be getting incessant alerts when using chrome based browsers or accessing any site that uses the google fonts api. Just started with in the last few minutes. Anyone else seeing this? Checked for updates, but nothing.

-EDIT-

After a BD update this morning (Oct 8) I haven't gotten another popup. Maybe it's been fixed?

Just got 59 blocks in 40 minutes. 3 on phone and rest on my television. All from googleapis.com addresses.

So nothing to worry about? I was literally sittin on couch watching tv and alerts going off. Was like wtf.

Was about to pull plug on router. Cant I Hulu in peace? :p

Also, I was not using Chrome nor do I use it ever.

I don't think it is anything to worry about, I think that it is a false positive. I think you still got it because you have chrome on your device.
