That's just... moving the expiration date. Why not provide those milder warnings BEFORE the current expiration date? If there's just an arbitrary point in time

That's just... moving the expiration date. Why not provide those milder warnings BEFORE the current expiration date?
If there's just an arbitrary point in time where after which we start warning people and then another point where the cert expires... Why move "expiration" around.
- mehrdadn 6y ago> That's just... moving the expiration date. No it's not, you still get a (slightly) nagging warning. Just one that's much milder (without the red alert, fear-mongering, etc.) and still lets people use the site for a while. > Why not provide those milder warnings BEFORE the current expiration date? I indeed almost suggested this, but the problem is the site owner hasn't done anything wrong in that case, so the warning would be an actual false alarm.
- bawolff 6y agoIf you are a site operator whose using a certificate that expires in under a day, you are doing something wrong.
