re: #57 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus

It’s so frustrating - why Chrome stops me from going to some websites.

Not all websites. Many websites are fine (like LGF.) Google’s own websites are fine.

But there are a smattering of websites I usually visit, such as Wikipedia, which now Chrome thinks is too dangerous for me to visit. The cert is rejected.

I’m wondering if some severs have been installed with software that expects something from my old iMac that it just can’t deliver?

I think there’s a very low-level problem with the latest version of Chromium (what Chrome and Edge are built on). Apparently version 94.blahblah is passing special characters with headers, it’s causing problems with certain websites and it manifests in various ways. This is just my observation in having to deal with one of those low level website problems where the workaround is “use something that is not the current versions of Chrome or Edge or Firefox or Safari. Or something else.”
