Bonjour,
I was attracted to your article because I have a concern for connection with Safari, under Mac OS High Sierra. When I try to access Netflix, get the message “This connection is not private” As you mention above. There are indeed 2 buttons, see the details and come back. In no case by selecting one or the other can I access the site. Do you have an idea of the solution to implement to get out of it. THANKS. Sincerely
