Railworksamerica.com Not Secure??

[_o_OOOO_oo-Kanawha]

As of late, a lot of websites show up as Not Secure in the browser's address bar on Safari on my iMac and Firefox on my PC, railworksamerica.com included

Also, Firefox seems to have been compromised and declared all of its extensions insecure and has disabled them.
Edit: Firefox's master certificate used to authenticate all of its extensions has expired and was not renewned in time?

Is there a major/global problem with the certificates used to authenticate a secure https connection?

Seems we've become dependent on a very small number of parties for our internet economy, commercial enterprises often politically unchecked.
Network chips manufacturers, Top level DNS authorities, certificate authorities, are these all trustworthy at all times and do they have YOUR interests in the forefront of their minds and actions?

Browsers are now required to notify users when they view a website that is not “secure”.

“The warning refers to the lack of security for the connection to that page. It’s alerting you that information sent and received with that page is unprotected and it could potentially be stolen, read, or modified by attackers, hackers, and entities with access to internet infrastructure, such as Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and governments.

This “Not Secure” warning appears on all pages using the HTTP protocol, which is incapable of providing a secure connection. Historically, this has been the primary protocol used for internet communication.

Over the last few years, websites have been transitioning to HTTPS—note the S appended to the end—which does provide security and is used by millions of websites including Google.com, Facebook.com, and Amazon.com, to protect your information while browsing, logging in, and making purchases.

The “Not Secure” warning does not indicate that your computer or the site you are visiting is affected by malware. It only serves to alert you that you do not have a secure connection with that page. Note that some websites may only support secure HTTPS connections on some pages, but not all; in these cases you may see the “Not Secure” warning on only the insecure pages.”

Hope this helps....

The problem with Firefox should have been fixed. This was not a hack but an error on the part of Mozilla. If you still have an issue here is a way to force the fix. https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/05 ... n-firefox/

I don’t think that the site is any less secure than it was but the browsers have changed their criteria.

Unless Arti and Buzz turn out to be some group of monsters I don't think you have much to worry about here.

I think we all should be more concerned about whats lurking in the spam folders of our emails than what goes on here.
