Some National Guard sites seem to have a similar problem lately.

In the past, you were able to type "badidea" in order to bypass the SSL scare screen. Is that no longer the case?

In firefox you can click advanced -> add exception.

They changed it (and I don’t want to post the new one...) because too many people started using that.

`thisisunsafe` in Chrome.

Can't you just click "Advance" and then "Proceed to ... (unsafe)"?

The server can set headers that forbid that... Maybe you can get around that block like this?

I've generally just gone with Firefox if I stumbled upon that error, as it ignore the header.

globalentry.gov has a valid certificate. The link you shared is for www.globalentry.gov. Presumably, the admins there shouldn't simply be pointing www.globalentry.gov at the same IP as globalentry.gov.

It would still be an invalid certificate since they use www.* and didn't include it.

Or if you want to be nice - misconfigured. ;)

Title says `GlobalEntry.gov`, link points to `www.globalentry.gov`. And yes, presumably it's misconfigured.

It just doesn't have an entry for www.globalentry.gov. This works:

https://globalentry.gov/

It's just a redirect to a page on CBP. Slow news day for this to make the front page of HN.

This is just my opportunity to say: it's a travesty everybody doesn't get the Global Entry / TSA Pre Experience. It's so much better and I hate that you have to pay for it.
