I can understand forbidding JavaScript, but forbidding HTTPS makes it impossible to build any kind of secure service.
Does Facebook follow this rule today in its zero-rated India service? If so, does that mean it's easy to intercept those connections and impersonate users (or Facebook itself) with FireSheep?

Well, yeah, but if that means someone would have to offer email service without HTTPS, so anybody can read my email unencrypted or even send email as me, is that even useful?
