- tialaramex 5y agoBut, when was the last time you needed that? My phone and my laptops both seem to correctly notice (via services for the purpose) when there isn't proper Internet access and give me access to some awful Captive Portal to fix that, for which they do not need neverssl.com. This desktop never leaves my home, which doesn't have any such nonsense. The services they use to do that do involve plaintext HTTP, but importantly they aren't trying to just be something you type into a web browser, and so aren't affected by automatic upgrades of stuff you type into a web browser.
