non private connection in android

[MitoReads]

www.google.com normally uses encryption to protect your information. When Chrome tried to connect to www.google.com this time, the website sent back unusual and incorrect credentials. This may happen when an attacker is trying to pretend to be www.google.com, or a Wi-Fi sign-in screen has interrupted the connection. Your information is still secure because Chrome stopped the connection before any data was exchanged.

You cannot visit www.google.com right now because the website uses HSTS. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work later.

NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID ("non-private connection") means Chrome on Android doesn't trust the MITM CA that mhrv-rs generates. The CA isn't installed in Android's user trust store.

Fix on Android:

1. Open the mhrv-rs Android app → tap CA Cert → it exports mhrv-rs-ca.crt to Downloads.
2. Settings → Security → Encryption & credentials → Install a certificate → CA certificate → pick mhrv-rs-ca.crt.
3. Confirm "Install anyway" warning.
4. Settings → Security → Trusted credentials → User → confirm mhrv-rs CA is listed.
5. Restart Chrome (force stop + reopen).

Note: Chrome on Android only trusts user CAs for sites accessed via the user's network stack, not for any app that pins certs (banking apps etc).
