Saying there's "no excuse" to not have HTTPS is presuming there's a benefit in 100% of cases to have it in the first place. I don't want my internal sites breaking because a cert couldn't be updated, on something that didn't need it in the first place. There are even external sites I run that I could argue don't need it.

- hsbauauvhabzb 3y agoYou realise building a website can be done in notepad, without a web server, or self hosted on loopback, or a variety of other things, right?
- unmole 3y agoYou do realise a HTML page in notepad isn't a website, right? TFA is about moving all http:// http:// navigations to https:// https:// and requiring explicit permission to access content over http:// http://. A local file is not served over HTTP.
