This will break some websites that are not configured properly -- for example, a server that has several sites but only one of them uses https. Trying https on the other sites would default to the https in use. I've seen this happen on some servers we run internally.
In short, there's no way to know if you're actually seeing the correct https version of the site.
- Sulfu 11y agoOk yes you are right, this might break some unproperly configured servers (i also regulary see websites that goes to admin panels when trying to access to secure http), but this while probably last only few weeks or months before the majority of websites fixes it. Anyway, i think this is a good thing, we should have switch to full HTTPS a long time ago and this feature might help.
- hobarrera 11y agoI assume that's not many sites. And in any case: their configuration is broken, so it'll be time to fix them. It'll probably be no more than a month before everyone catches up.
