I'm going to come out and say it. HTTPs is borked, in a functional way. On a social/technical level, it has become a false sense of security. The PRISM revelations let us know that the three letters and any corporate wannabe was doing MITM not just on http but on HTTPS whenever possible. I would say the ISP's and the CA's should all be considered compromised.
We need something new and better, not to push HTTPs on everything as an imagined stop gap...
That being said though, I do understand that if this was pushed to wider adoption, it would create a higher cost to perform such attacks, for ISP's and three letters?
