It only takes 1 server to serve differing content through each protocol to break things for the user
- seandougall 10y agoYeah, but that's a subset of "misbehaving servers break the web" as far as I can tell. HTTPS doesn't inherently cause this problem, it just provides one theoretical nucleation point for it.
- cbr 10y agoServing different things on https and http is completely to spec, though. It's not really a server misbehaving. (I do agree that it's contrary to expectations, but I'm sure this doesn't stop sites from relying on it.)
