Locks come standard on every door, they don't expire after a given time and every child knows how to use them. See how your comparison to acquiring, setting up and maintainning an SSL certificate is nonsensical?

If the NSA tags people who look for info on TOR as extremists, an hypothetical state might tag people who use HTTPS. And to think that HTTP could have avoided that! I mean, if every argument is an hypothetical, anything is possible.
- scrollaway 12y agoIf HTTPS is used globally, people can't be flagged for using it (or the flags end up being useless). Right now, you are correct, people could hypothetically be flagged for using HTTPS. This would not happen if every static blog and what not out there would use it. Thank you for reinforcing my point, I appreciate the help.
