The main beef I have is that on an article about expanding the use of transport layer security, people are arguing against implementing transport layer security. To me this is an incredibly hypocritical stance for people to take.
You can downvote me because you disagree with the way I'm communicating my message, but I hope you don't disagree with the sentiment that we should be working to implement transport layer security everywhere and not just for protocols like HTTP.
Also saying my points are unworthy of civilised debate because of the language I use strikes me as incredibly naive. Donald Trump says nasty things, but people can and do debate him because the issues at hand are important to them and to the public at large. Refusing to engage someone because you disagree with the language they're using, which in my case is not hate speech or discriminating against a specific group of people, is dangerous to civil society.
