Even IRS.gov has an invalid SSL. Is big bad Google going to penalize the IRS?
The big winners from this are companies like VeriSign who sell SSL certificates.This Connection is Untrusted
You have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.irs.gov, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
What Should I Do?
If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
www.irs.gov uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.akamaihd.net, *.akamaihd-staging.net, a248.e.akamai.net, *.akamaized.net, *.akamaized-staging.net (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)Support American Heroes | How Bad is My Batch? | Vaccine Deaths & Adverse Reactions | Free Speech Coalition | <WARNING> ePayService / Guerra Capital, INC / MTACC payments | Flirt4Free Fucks their Affiliates | Don't do business with piece of shit Andy Alvarez from Webmaster Central / VR3000, who said:

So I just googled what the heck this is.
I don't get what the benefit to the surfer is, do you all?
Is the idea that Google can use https accounts to tell exactly what the map of sites believe belonging to an organization is?
How are some resellers doing $4.99 each, while more primary sites seem to be selling organization-wide or server-wide certificates? Doesn't this defeat the purpose?
Good topic, Jay

Happened just a few days ago. Screwed up some of the whitelabels on folks and also screwed up the pull from the xml feed.
There's a thread about it somewhere from the day it happened.

Thanks Jay
We're starting a new mainstream site and made all the url's https
Debating if we'll do it with Barelist's redesign, not sure yet... we get a lot of traffic from Google, so I'm nervous of changing URLS.
Also, makes sense... not everyone will go out and buy wildcard certificates for $100+ for smaller sites. Maybe gives Google a clue to people that care a bit more about their sites...Comment

If Google says: JUMP! I am not going to ask how high ...
That said, we may use encryption were it makes sense to do so. (Then noindex those pages because Google has no business being there
)Comment
