I'm using Chromium on Ubuntu 16, and I've been trying to visit

https://www.nist.gov/

but I don't even get an option to 'browse insecurely' under the 'Advanced' link.

In my experience that past couple days, I get the warning on about 10-25% of major web sites.

try typing 'badidea' on that page and report back if it works. :)

I'm finding about the same, including major sites like Mint.com and Amazon (or part of Amazon's CDN for images, anyway). I'm running a slightly older Ubuntu and as of now, Chromium 53 is the latest in the repos...

"Too many websites have chosen redaction incorrectly"

I purchased a Symantec cert from ssls.com for one of my sites. I wasn't given the option of redacting anything.. yet I'm seeing this error with Chrome 53 in Linux. (I also have Chrome 54 on another computer, and it's working fine).

There are clearly other ways of ending up with a certificate that triggers this.
