Unfortunately when hitting a data limit that causes these Comcast pop ups it breaks HTTPS connections. The only way to regain internet access is to visit a HTTP site such as example.com to get the pop up.
I've had this experience too. I complained to the FCC about it, and for my efforts got a likely-cookie-cutter mail response from comcast explaining that they provide these "rare, important messages" "for my own good".
edit: to clarify, I was complaining about the fact it broke all my connections, not that it was going on in the first place (which i'm also livid about)
