- alwaysdoit 13y agohttp is like the postcard of the internet. By switching to https only, they are requiring you to send them messages in security envelopes rather than postcards.
- nl 13y agoWhy does your bank use https? Amongst other things, it makes NSA tapping of fiber in front of their datacenters less useful. It also makes switches that replicate traffic to NSA less useful.
- skj 13y agoNo, for improved security. The http/https question is completely irrelevant to the PRISM-complicity question. I'm not sure why you brought it up.
