I keep getting warnings about search not being secure if I use DuckDuckGo search bar in Firefox. It won't load the page I am trying to reach. It says connection is not secure... just started recently. Why?

Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
