Getting untrusted site warning on every site I attempt to visit within Firefox while on 4G, but not WiFi


Recommended Posts

Whenever I attempt to browse any website on my cell phone while connected to the 4G network yields me a message that this site is untrusted, regardless of what site it is (even Google triggers it) but when I am connected via WiFi, I can browse just fine. The only thing that I can think that could be causing the issue is Adguard, but it has never had any issues like this before. Has anyone else seen this type of error before?

Make sure the date on your device is set correctly.

Thanks for the response, I checked and the date is set correctly, and it is set to automatic from the carrier.

I get this problem in Firefox when I run Fiddler at work, which proxies traffic while it is running. So I’d check to see what might be proxying your traffic on your phone. 

Yeah my guess is your being https is being proxied and you do not trust the CA that created the cert...  Check the details of the https cert and who/what created it, etc.

Adguard is your issue. I remember you having this issue on the computer browser too, adguard always seems to conflict with firefox after some time. Doesnt Adguard basically setup a VPN that routes your phone traffic through their servers and back to you, removing the ads? I can guarantee you that is your problem.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
