I use HTTPS Everywhere plugin for firefox... it's pretty surprising in 2019 how many network-related blogs and articles are on http links and the https equivalent is broken.
You can use Let's Encrypt, it's free. It makes me not want to listen to what's supposed to be their wisdom on networking matters if they can't even get that right.

- perfmode 8y agoGregg isn’t a bad engineer. In fact, quite the opposite. Do yourself a favor and overlook the TLS on his read only blog.
- letstrynvm 8y agoMaybe he should do himself a favor and fix his broken :443, or disable it.
- zamadatix 8y agoIt's a performance blog not a networking blog. eBOF isn't limited to networking nor was this blog post.
- letstrynvm 8y ago... I said his https is broken. His https is broken. Does that really need downvoting into oblivion?
- letstrynvm 8y agoHis https is still broken. Maybe he'll fix it if someone points it out to him.
- cyphar 8y agoThat isn't all you said. The last line was unnecessary in making your point, and wasn't polite. That's why people are downvoting you.
- dogecoinbase 8y agoHTTPS (and DNSSEC!) are antithetical to the idea of proper network engineering. Hierarchical, centralized control systems. Let's Encrypt being free should only make you more suspicious about who's making money from whom. No thank you.
- letstrynvm 8y agoWho is making money off let's encrypt? The service is provided for free.
- dogecoinbase 8y agoNothing is free.
