My point was more that I don't think everyone ignoring the security warnings has that level of understanding: all they see is "Chrome is freaking out", they don't see "the security cert expired a day ago and this probably isn't a hack". But even though they don't have the understanding we do, they continue to use the site.
Do you tell them that the Internet is for porn?
