Well, I think the concept here is to publicly pledge to dump yahoo, in order to convince & pressure others to do the same. Saying you care about your privacy and security doesn't mean you remove yourself from all forms of public expression. It's the most basic form of free speech.
If you want to privately pledge, just write it down on a sticky note, and put it on your monitor.
- bbcbasic 10y agoStill. I think its a bit absurd.
- CobrastanJorji 10y agoThis is a site collecting information for a public petition. By definition your GOAL is to share your information publicly. How is it absurd to do so in the open?
- bbcbasic 10y agoWhat if I decide I don't want to share publicly. By then the contents of the page as I have viewed have been sent unencrypted.
- johnmaguire2013 10y agoYour headers would still be unencrypted -- including the domain and URL you accessed.
- alexbecker 10y agoThe domain is unencrypted over HTTPS, but the path is encrypted.
- palunon 10y agoSo the difference is "you accessed www.dumpyahoo.com" vs "you accessed www.dumpyahoo.com asking for / "...
- alexbecker 10y agoI agree in this case it isn't very helpful.
- johnmaguire2013 10y agoThanks for the correction.
- eastWestMath 10y agoExactly what do you not wish to share publicly? Signing a petition is public by definition.
