Update: We have rolled out a partial fix for this issue. We generated a new intermediate certificate with the same name/key but an updated validity window and pushed it out to users via Normandy (this should be most users). Users who have Normandy on should see their add-ons start working over the next few hours. We are continuing to work on packaging up the new certificate for users who have Normandy disabled.

Thanks. This must be terribly stressful to you.

Meanwhile, having to browse the web without an adblocker has been nothing but relaxing for everybody else.

Sorry, the stress someone on the Firefox team must be experiencing would easily be magnitudes beyond what we are.

No offense but they're not getting inhumane shock treament either if you're going to pull "our stress is holier than thou" and say it's magnitudes higher, I'll be waiting scientific backing on this or else it's just rude... plus they can always just not make me periodically re-install all my addons with no option to just bypass verification... except this time it doesn't work even with the fixes. (Actually, one time I just didn't see it was set to update automatically downgrading one of them. I'm no expert on these issues, really. They just could have asked first in my opinion.) Thanks, Mozillama.

Edit: I had to click "Restart with addons disabled (safe mode)" for those wondering.
