- chrisseaton 11y agoYes, amazingly I understand that. But it's not any more surprising or funny that the Bank of England would be on HTTP compared to any other policy website which still isn't on HTTPS.
- tombrossman 11y agoOkay, fair point. Perhaps I did not explain myself thoroughly. When I see bank + policy + not just some random bank but the BANK OF ENGLAND, I do expect to see HTTPS guaranteeing the integrity of what is unquestionably important and influential data being served to decision makers. This amused me, but maybe I'm just easily amused.
