Key pinning is a security feature that prevents attackers from using fraudulent or misused certificates to impersonate a site. It allows the owner of a site to specify who can issue valid certificates with that identity, rather than accepting any one of the hundreds of built-in root certificates that ship with your browser.

This is for your protection so you don't inadvertently visit a site that's not authentic. =What can I do if Firefox rejects the connection?= If you believe that Firefox rejected the connection in error, report it by checking the box next to ''Report errors like this to help Mozilla identify and block malicious sites'' to report it to us. It is up to the website owner to update their key pinning.
