hello, first please make sure that the date & time is set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:

  • what is the error code shown under technical details on the error page?

in case the error code equals sec_error_unknown_issuer, please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page & inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):

  • which issuer information does the certificate contain?

thank you!

twitter.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.akamaihd.net , *.akamaihd-staging.net , a248.e.akamai.net (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)


It wont let me add an exemption or hit "understand the risks."

hm, this sounds as if something isn't set up properly on twitter's part - could you try to clear the cache & cookies from twitter.com and reload the page.
