Here are two contemporaries and WP.com VIP customers that do have their own certs: https://recode.net/ https://recode.net/ https://gigaom.com/ https://gigaom.com/ Here are two that don't: https://qz.com https://qz.com https://pando.com/ https://pando.com/ And one that redirects you from https https://time.com https://time.com Is that last one the best experience if you don't have a cert?

> https://time.com https://time.com > Is that last one the best experience if you don't have a cert? Ironically, in order to serve an HTTPS to HTTP redirection, you need a valid cert. Indeed, time.com has a valid cert.

  Many ad networks don't work over https. As these news sites are ad-based businesses, unfortunately this forces some bad decisions.
