I can confirm the OP text is indeed identical to the text on that CGTN article (Chinese state-owned media). This is simple plagiarism—among other things.
edit: On that tangent, CGTN Africa itself plagiarized Oxfam's press release—it's obviously the same text, run through an LLM for rephrasing. It's SEO spam all the way down!
Site certificiate expired October 25, two days ago.
Site is not authoritative/original link:
https://www.oxfam.org/en/press-releases/41-billion-world-ban...
The report itself:
> Download Oxfam’s new report “Climate Finance Unchecked.”
> https://oxfamilibrary.openrepository.com/bitstream/handle/10...
yup. I'm sure the one dude responsible for it will get to it on Monday.
Just throw in a big red exclamation point on top of the little padlock icon next to the URL bar - it's literally only there to inform the user about any potential security issues. Use it and (unless the site is known to be or obviously malicious) load the bloody page.
Honestly, it's absolutely insane that the browser misrepresent out of chain HTTPS as more of a threat than HTTP.
Seems fine.
The certificate is expired, your traffic to and from that site is not encrypted. If it were the case that your traffic could still be encrypted, what would even be the point of expiring the certificate?
You're correct that you can still access it, over an unencrypted connection, however.
If that's the case, then Google's condescension is doing a disservice to its users.
