And I've been running into things like that more and more. Is Chrome just getting a little twitchy or should I obey their warnings and not go to the sites?
It is the new push towards proper HTTPS handling. Many sites are rather pathetic about their SSL certificates, so until they become normal you will see this a lot.

Firefox is not as twitchy.

Also, I could swear that warning is only supposed to show up for sites using HSTS (Strict Transport Security)... mumblemumblemumble


See: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/anal...help.imgur.com for an analysis of the website security. Note the large errors about badly-configured certs.
