pfblockerng-devel causing browsers security alert
-
I've installed pfblockerng-devel but having a problem with browsers throwing an privacy/security alert on google ads and other links tied to google services. It appears that it's breaking HTTP Strict Transport Security. I want to continue using pfblockerng but is there a way to fix this? Any help is appreciated!

Impossible. Installing pfBlockerNG-devel 2.2.5_3 does not change the behaviour of the router/firewall/pfSense.
You've done something else you didn't mention.
Like selecting feeds that contain many "Google" IP.@gnichols said in pfblockerng-devel causing browsers security alert:

Yep, impossible for pfBlockerNG to replace the info coming from from these https sites.
This (example) :is the best you can get.
edit : and think about it : you do not want it to get any better, because the price to pay would be huge - like breaking the entire Internet security.

That's because you enabled rules that blocks those domains with ad content ... you can go to Firewall > pfBlockerNG > Alerts then scroll down to DNSBL then look for the domain you wanted to visit and click the plus symbol (+) to add to whitelist.
