Okay, so you know how the FBI (USpol) wants you to reset your router due to Russian hackers? And you know how most people won't actually do it because they don't know what a router is or if they actually have one or not? And even if they do know that the little black box that blinks at them everyday is a router, they know it's too much of a pain to reset and if computer security were really that important a Very Smart Person would figure it all out and not bother them...

...Well, I decided that I would reset my own router, because it would only take a few seconds and then I could input the IP of the router into my browser and get a nice GUI so I could reset my password. But then my browser says it's an insecure site. So I go on my ISP website and chat with the nice tech for nearly two hours to figure out what went wrong and by the end of the chat my wifi is broken and I need a new router.

I was even able to provide helpful things to the tech like giving her the exact error code I was getting in the browser. It was an invalid certificate. So how is your average 50+ year old senior who hasn't been running linux for the past 4 years supposed to deal with this FBI router reboot request? I'm afraid ignoring it because they don't know what to do and it sounds like a lot of bother is just what a lot of people are going to do.
