The important is that ISPs are evil and untrusted. facepalm
- Gigachad 4y agoISPs are the most blatantly scummy of the lot. They log everything, usually by government requirements, sell it to anyone, give it to the government without a warrant, inject adverts and js in to unprotected requests, and all kinds of malicious things. They are easily eliminated from the picture. One less party with access to your data the better. There is really _no_ good argument for not having HTTPS on any site unless its some very rare case like an intranet site.

I don't think I go a single day without reading posts complaining about exactly that, so obviously people do care.
