- Rated 5 out of 5by realifY, 2 years agoCan you actually make one that upgrades to HTTPS? Seems like HTTPS everywhere extension is not available on Firefox mobile.
- Rated 5 out of 5by ChainSwordCS, 3 years agofunny idea. and i have actually found a couple cases where the webpage wouldn't work unless i had enabled this extension. but 99.99% of people would never have any reason to use this, lol.
for example, i found a couple 15+ year old japanese websites with the server configured to automatically upgrade to https if the client allows it, but where the https endpoint(?) was misconfigured and it would just return an empty page with a 200 OK response, but if you used an older browser which doesn't agree to upgrade to https (maybe due to an outdated certificate store) and view the site via http then the page would load just fine. which is a really bizarre problem, btw. - Rated 1 out of 5by Albin, 3 years agoEncrypted websites & connections are not a joke. Its decreases the threads with your information. Do not use this addon as it breaks the entire security (https connection) of your browser. As the developer claims, it is not a fun at all.

posted 3 years agoI have added even more clarification than there was before that this extension does not claim to be practical or a good idea. The extension does exactly what it claims to do: block secure connections. Hopefully this is obviously more of a bad idea now.
