Steps to reproduce:
Activate https-only mode and call a website that only supports http and not https. Make sure your browser's language is set to German.
Actual results:
An info page with the title "Sichere Verbindung nicht verfügbar" (EN: "Secure connection not available") is displayed. The second phrase of the second bullet point in the paragraph "Was könnte die Ursache sein?" (EN: "What could be causing this?") is badly translated:
"[... Angreifer...] Falls Sie sich dafür entscheiden, die Website aufzurufen, sollten Sie nicht sensible Informationen wie Passwörter, E-Mail-Adressen oder Kreditkartendaten in diese eingeben."
Retranslated to English, this reads "[... attacker...] If you decide to visit the website, you should enter non-sensitive information such as passwords, email addresses or credit card numbers", which means the exact opposite of what this message is supposed to convey.

Expected results:
The sentence should read "Falls Sie sich entscheiden, die Website zu aufzurufen, sollten Sie dort keine sensiblen Informationen wie Passwörter, E-Mail-Adressen oder Kreditkartendaten eingeben."
I've chosen to add two minor improvements to render the sentence more idiomatic.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Networking' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Thanks for reporting, It's possible to provide an alternative suggestion here (a translator will need to review/approve it)
