Why doesn't blogspot automatically redirect http URLs into https ones?

  This is the most HN comment ever.

    honestly the more HN comment is somebody complaining that it does redirect http to https because <long rant about certificate issuers> and then somebody brings up lets encrypt and then it degrades into a big argument until eventually somebody brings up SWJs at which point that person lost the argument.

      Maybe the second most HN comment is running argument simulations? This one is even complete with a base case (SJWs) that is self-ending because you yourself brought it up. Saved us the trouble.

        No, they said SWJ, the journal dedicated to intrastate conflicts.[1] Not to be confused with the WSJ. [1]https://smallwarsjournal.com/ https://smallwarsjournal.com/

      I'm mostly just happy that the site works fine with Javascript disabled.

  That would break rendering on a bunch of blogs because of mixed content problems: https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/6286127 https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/6286127
