"Your connection is not secure" - doesn't make me happy - it upsets me
"Your connection is not secure"
Messages like this harm sites, public, users and more. In most cases this warning is unsubstantiated and conviction of some immature self entitled developers has nothing to do with real world. Can pissing pizza eaters obsessed by by their own hacks do scare general public. You're not entitled to police web and a bit of decency (which probably died along with your parents) will be at least to rephrase it. As far as i am concern I now what I am doing and I do not want to be blocked in the name of some low lives ideas.

Sorry did you want help or are you just ranting with insults to other users here.
In case you actually wanted help https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/secure-connection-failed-error-message https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER#w_the-error-occurs-on-multiple-secure-sites
Some common reasons Firefox may give this error. It may be as simple as date/time on OS is incorrect. It may be a Proxy setup issue if you are using one.
However one of the most common reasons (on Windows) is your unnamed antivirus client is trying to help you be safe by inserting its own certificate and instead causes problems like the "Your connection is not secure" message you are getting. This of course makes some people blame Mozilla and or the Firefox browser when it was not the case.

If you are referring to the message that appears in the control center (Site Information panel) on HTTP sites, maybe it is more alarming than necessary, but that's what it is.
You can suggest alternate language here:

You may be a bit confused about the meaning of the word 'decency':
the replies you got from both jscher and james -- now, that is called 'decency' .......
