I like the analogy of "voluntary man in the middle attack", but I do agree with Google's push for HTTPS. In fact, I'm also a proponent for DNS over HTTPS. Whatever we can do to eliminate / reduce "involuntary" man in the middle attacks.
- rightbyte 8y agoI also agree with that https is a good thing but Google is probably pushing it for the wrong reasons and forcing it with Chrome "unsafe site" thing. I like to keep protocols simple but I understand the need for https. And it's nice to know my employer/ISP doesn't know exactly what subpage i am browsing of a site that could just aswell be http as it has no logins or w/e. It wrecks sane easy caching though. Instead we have this "free" as in free beer Cloudflare alternatives or paid CDNs. Trading dolars for surveilence of our page viewers. I kinda prefer easier surveilence over monopoly surveilence if I have too choose between those two. If you are doing subversive anti-government stuff you could still use a VPN that's hopefully not a honey pot ...
