This is not an argument in favour of a search engine/browser penalizing HTTP servers.
- ddalex 3y agoI mean it's a free world, let's all use browsers and search engines that don't penalize HTTP
- bmacho 3y agoWhy not start with realizing and saying out loud that https enforcing is bad?
- pixl97 3y agoTurns out the browser model of executing Javascript is worse when it comes to things being injected in the http stream.
- IntelMiner 3y ago"This thing is bad" "Then don't do the thing you disagree with? It's a free and open web" "Why don't you start with agreeing with my position first?"
- bmacho 3y ago"This things is bad" "Yeah, whatever, feel free to die fighting against it" I think advocating against somethig, generating a discussion, moving the Overton window is a valid, almost necessary thing. (I admit sometimes they threaten the things I like (or me), but most of the time, it's OK.) Perhaps "agreeing" was a bad choice of word, instead discussing, debating, or just letting me know your opinion about the matter.
- amf12 3y agoIt may be in the browser's interest when the majority of their userbase is non-tech. I'd rather my mom use such a browser than one which does not enforce it.
- woodruffw 3y ago> This is not an argument in favour of a search engine/browser penalizing HTTP servers. Why isn't it? By navigating to a domain (or searching for it), the user is arguably making an intent statement ("I want content on $domain"). Ensuring that the user doesn't get spam, malware, etc. instead seems well within the scope of the browser.
