Is gstatic.com Safe?

I know that this platform is run by Google and is helping people with some... optimization processes. So, the question about whether to trust it or not isn't on the agenda. Google is a respected company that never puts its reputation at doubt. It never cheats on people, hacks their computers, sends trojan viruses and all that. The platform is legit and I am sure about safety of my data while Iam on it. Dunno why some people claim that it's a phishing software, malware and all that. It's not like that.

According to Google's Safe Browsing Diagnostic Page advisory: The last time Google visited this site was on 2014-01-10, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on ***** Malicious software includes 1 exploit(s). ...this site has hosted malicious software over the past 90 days. It infected 1 domain(s), including ***** http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=gstatic.com

In order to see a map I'd needed for directions, gstatic had to be allowed as well as yelp/ yelpcdn.com. Children would need supervision & assistance to view the map, otherwise blocked & blank. So did I. NoScript automatically blocked gstatic as well as ***** mywot.net., so rather than allowing "all content", instead, "temporarily" I'd allowed only those needed in order to write this review. I think it's worth it, don't you? At least 'temporarily'!? =)
