Issue description
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.51 Safari/537.36
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open Chrome and visis a website.
2. Look at the text to the left of the URL.
3.
What is the expected behavior?
The Dutch translation should be a correct (non misleading) translation of "secure".
What went wrong?
The current translation ("veilig") is actually the translation of "safe". Which means something very different as "secure". I don't expect Chrome to be able to declare a website safe to visit. That would take a lot more than just checking for encryption on the network traffic with a valid certificate.
Did this work before? N/A
Chrome version: 65.0.3325.51 Channel: beta
OS Version: OS X 10.13.3
Flash Version:
Maybe "beveiligd" would be a better translation. I know it sounds very similar but it really means something entirely different as "veilig".

go/locobug (internal link) is generally the best and fastest route. I filed b/73291351, will update this bug.

Thanks. It may seem like a small matter. But it would help a lot (for those of us having to explain these matters to "normal" people) to get the translation right.

Actually I had not expected to get anywhere with this bug... possibly because the translation I proposed is a bit longer than the current one. That is however just our language. Translating from English to Dutch often requires more space in a user interface. I'd say that should be less important than getting the translation right. But I'm not the one who decides. ;-) So I do appreciate your help. Thanks.
