cannot verify certificate "static.ak.facebook.com"

Hello Folks. Igo to a news site, then a drop down: cannot verify certificate "static.ak.facebook.com" could put information at risk; connect anyway? --But It happens at several sites. I do not do facebook.

Any thoughts or information from anyone, I hope?

Hmmm. I had my latest update about four days ago, and it began about ten minutes before I posted.

So- it is something in the certificates I will guess.

OR a giant web-wide redirect is happening. I clicked on 'show certificate' and it says it is a company called akamai....maybe it is cyber war starting?

yikes... You please report back anything you learn also, and I will if I learn anything new.

I will look into that akamai

Yes I also worried it was just a personal attack on my Mac, still annoying though. The date on certificate is 2013. I even deleted it out of keychain and it still comes up, so not sure where it is running from????

Well, if I figure it right, safari checks certificates of a site as logging or you know, going to a site...

If cert is old bad or what, depending on how we have preferences set, we are warned, like this.

So- oh who was it that said THEY are having certificate issues- if that is the case, it is a mere annoyance. I just was hitting cancel and the desired page remained. I did not get experimental and click "continue"- fearing a different page would load...
