For much of the internet this is not protected as people use Chrome that performs passive surveillance.
For me, I’ve accepted passive surveillance for routine day to day activities. So I don’t care if my http traffic is analyzed by Starbucks or anyone. My TLS traffic is deep inspected by google through chrome, at work it’s literally MITM’d and inspected by IT, and at home the dns data is tracked by my ISP or google or maybe not cloudflare depending on my DNS, and otherwise inspected through host headers by my ISP and everyone in between.
I don’t think this is even a factor in deciding if my site is http or https.
