Out of curiousity, I like security just as much as the next guy and ensure that certs are valid, ciphers are fresh, and protocols are mature, but I am also not really concerned with an informational site that runs http being browsed. Would you mind sharing what your concern would be with browsing this content over http?
MITM injection by your ISP or government
Inject what exactly? Why should I trust incompleteideas.net more than my ISP or government?
Use uBlock Origin and add custom filters to block scripts on http:// ; e.g.
the reason for https is MITM injection, regardless of original content
ah, didn't know that. thanks!
If you'd like to dig more into the history, let's encrypt did so much to enable the movement to https by making certs free, and chrome with the red text and warnings in the url bar, which has since graduated to a full on page that requires clicking to still go despite the warnings
So what? Are you worried someone replaces the txt with a different txt?
what if they add js?
What if the original page is untrustworthy and adds JS?
then probably don't give this blog post your personal financial information just to be safe.
