- Rated 2 out of 5by yemen ana, 7 years agothanks the nice addon
An awesome add-on, delights me much because HTTPS Everywhere failed at a particular page where Smart HTTPS (revived) succeeded. Only one minor thing to take care of.
bu the site no https://alyemenalghad.com/ - Rated 1 out of 5by Crogon, 7 years agoI was shocked to see the Firefox Devs recommending a third party add-on, Smart HTTPS. Smart HTTPS is actually pretty stupid, and does not include complex rulesets. The Electronic Freedom Foundation has spent a LOT of time making sure that hundreds of the most common violators of this issue are dealt with correctly. HTTPS Everywhere may not redirect everything everywhere, but it does fix even the most complex rule breakers, like Facebook. Check out this link and click through to the Facebook ruleset for an example. https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere/atlas/
The Electronic Freedom Foundation has spent a lot of time and resources developing this, and they should be congratulated. The author of Smart HTTPS should be ashamed, and ought to team up with the EFF. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13288216, 7 years ago

The icon of add-on in firefox toolbar after installation appears as old blue icon, not as the green shield one shown on this page. Please please make the toolbar icon same as on this page because I really like the green shield. 5-stars :)
However there might be some problems in some bank sites, particularly during net-banking or the last stage where you automatically return from the bank portal to the site which was paid by you. - Rated 5 out of 5by Dave L, 7 years agoJust wanted to say thank you! As a long time user of Self Destructing Cookies, i am preparing to move to Firefox 57, and looking for replacements of add-ons that will not be updating for that version. I'll using your app concurrently on both Firefox 55 and 57. So, if I have anything helpful to add, i'll be back. So far, I love the look and feel of the app, and UI. Reminds me of my other must have add-on, Ublock Origin.

- Rated 3 out of 5by RicRud, 7 years agoDear sir, we have been waiting for you at GitHub to merge pull request.
Are you still keen on updating this for Chrome/Opera/Vivaldi?
Please let some of us know? PM me if you will. We want to see this being updated and developed for Opera/Vivaldi/Chrome too. Please let us know if you want to pass the Git on... --- ,,, But we hope that if you could keep maintaining, but also we understand if not convenient for you at this time. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12659481, 7 years agoFor some time the addon does not revert back to the HTTP address, it just shows an error message. Maybe a problem in combination with ublock origin and umatrix.

Using pages that use self signed certificates it does insert WRONG whitelists (no SSL).
Of cause, because of let's encrypt a.o. most sites can skip this, but domains as "fritz.box" or intern IP do not work.
In my case "fritz.box" does redirect to http whereas https is possible but an incorrect certificate.
Here it would be nice to have an option in the settings to allow incorrect certs and let the user choose if he lieves the site. - Rated 5 out of 5by Tim Reeves, 7 years agoI compared this with the much better known "HTTPS Everywhere" and find that this algorithm is much better - rather than depending on outdated and incomplete static knowledge, just try if it works, quietly revert if not. Optimal strategy. Just one little wish open: Not yet translated to German.
