> I don't particularly care if people get MITM'ed when visiting my static sites. If they did so it generally is because they chose to use unsafe public access points ( wifi ). This extends to some degree to all forms of wifi since so many security forms in use on them can be easily broken.
While wifi offers little "complete" security, some methods of security, (like implementing HTTPS) require very little work for a relatively large decrease in attack surface
- bigiain 8y agoAlso, remember that people who get MITMed are not going to say "Oh, sucks to be me for using insecure public wifi and getting pwned when visiting nanoscopic.io, I'm such an idiot..." - they're going to say "The shit-weasel who runs nanoscopic.io installed a fucking cryptominer and configured porn ad dns servers on my laptop! Don't _ever_ visit that site!" The "very little work" required to use https these days could one day be incredibly valuable in terms of not having your reputation trashed... Perhaps you _should_ care a little more about people getting MITMed...
