Attackers might be trying to steal your information from (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID

I'm getting the following error for one specific website (and only one specific website):

enter image description here

I've tried the following:

  • Making sure my time / data settings are correct
  • Clearing all browsing data
  • Deleting and reinstalling Chrome

Nothing works. Interestingly, I only get this error for one specific site (www.datacamp.com). And when I turn off wi-fi and tether my iPhone, I'm able to get through to the site. When I turn my wi-fi back on, I get errors again.

When I view details I see this:

And when I view the certificate I see this:

I've tried deleting the certificate, but I get the following message:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Why am I getting a privacy error?

If you see a privacy error message in Chrome, your connection isn't private, and data you share could be stolen. This error usually means Chrome can't verify the website's SSL certificate.

If you are getting this error when access localhost, simply go to

chrome://flags/

and enable Allow invalid certificates for resources loaded from localhost.

Ok, I don't know why it took me so long to try this. I just unplugged my modem and router, then plugged them back in. At least for now, it seems to have resolved the issue...
