Not great for general browsing indeed. However, it is indispensable for things that matter like banking, etc. I personally feel safer in some situation when I know that every single packet is forced over SSL and there is not even a single request that goes out over plain-text HTTP.
- buster 13y agoYes sure, that's why i recommended the other extension (which i am using). Because there are still a lot of sites out there that break or don't work over SSL at all.
- passfree 13y agoThe problem with this approach is that due to the way cookies work you can still leak stuff like session identifiers if you forget to enlist certain subdomains and you are browsing other unprotected sites. The privacy in this case is as good as the weakest link. I have multiple profiles under Google Chrome. One of them is for sensitive stuff where Panic Mode is installed and enabled always. I use it only for things that matter and it is not annoying me.
