Why HTTPS will never be required in browsers
- chmars 11y agoI don't agree with Dave, in particular because thanks to Let's Encrypt, my hoster offers SSL for free and many others do. (Many of the Let's Encrypt sponsors are hoster – and they usually are sponsors because they have already implemented free SSL for their customers: https://letsencrypt.org/sponsors/. https://letsencrypt.org/sponsors/.)
- oliwarner 11y agoThis is ridiculous. Free SSL certificates have existed for a long time. And there is a lot of churn at the free end, driven by Let's Encrypt. I'd be shocked if there aren't new —more convenient— domain level options provided by web hosts in the very near future. Maintaining a SSL certificate is only as important as maintaining the actual hosting.
