Potentially to prevent MITM proxies on company computers from being able to sniff the traffic. Maybe because of what blind is about, that would make sense? Otherwise, if it's secure TLS, then no reason at all
Edit: maybe the reason they use public key for transmission is because you can't reverse that, and that would potentially be where your anonymous complaints your complaints (or whatever you do on blind) would be?
- a1369209993 7y agoNote that as thenewnewguy says, anyone who can MITM your connection can also inject JS spyware (well, more so than usual) to exfiltrate your comments. That's harder (and much harder still to avoid discovery) than just sniffing the traffic, so it might be a useful stopgap, but for real security you need to fix your web browser to reject MITMed connections.
