Yes but they just as easily could have targeted traffic to this site as well.
Also a number of ISPs and wifi hotspots inject ads, and I know Verizon injected a tracking header based on your mobile plan.
- peterwwillis 11y agoSo Verizon is going to inject some 0day malware into this page to, what, serve you more ads? If you're concerned about tracking cookies or headers, get a plug-in to stop it. Every website on the planet should not need to use https just because Verizon wants to make money off targeted ads. And nobody is attacking this page to hack individuals. Of course you can. Security isn't about preventing every single possible attack from every possible angle. It's about making attacks more difficult when one is plausible or likely. Nobody will attack you through this particular website. So https is not needed to prevent a targeted attack.
