Because it's bloated nonsense. Just use smart https.

Because https is for retards with down syndrome.

Smart HTTPS blacklists the sites you visit whenever it falls back to HTTP. And breaks sites like [spoiler]javfor.me[/spoiler], so you have to whitelist shit too. Making you have two fucking visible lists.

Nice spoiler tags, fucktard.

>javfor.me
worksfor.me

Not an argument.

Probably after whitelisting.

Using an add-on for this is literally retarded.

Is there seriously no browser setting that has the same effect? I know a GM script can do it.

Not for Firefox and Chrome. No, there is no browser setting taking care of that. Not for the various forks either iirc. Only Brave comes to mind that does it.

lel that piece of shit can't even detect Sup Forums's https 100% of the time

best girl won

Nope, I didn't do shit. I installed it and it just werks.

So it's my fault that HTTPS Everywhere works for me, but Smart HTTPS breaks some sites?
Are the guys here also at fault?

Here's another site that I tested and it broke: thefappeningblog.com

What an ugly fucking drawing

Wasn't intended to be an argument, shit for brains. Literally kill yourself.

>being this buttblasted after instantly losing the argument

Maybe it's the webextension version sucking ass? I still use XUL.

Why do people say SSL when its TLS? Cause they should die?

SSL came before TLS, so a lot of people call TLS SSL too lmao

Because you're a shit brained fucktard. Kill yourself immediately.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as SSL, is in fact, TLS/SSL, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, TLS plus SSL. SSL is not a fully secure protocol unto itself, but rather an old predecessor of a fully functioning TLS cryptographic protocol made useful by the digital certificates, cryptographic algorithms and encryption keys comprising a fully secure protocol as defined by IETF.

Many computer users run a modified version of the TLS protocol every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of TLS which is widely used today is often called “SSL”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the TLS cryptographic protocol, developed by the IETF. There really is an SSL, and these people may be using it, but it is just an ancient predecessor to the modern TLS protocol they use.

SSL is the foundation: the original spec of the protocol that securely connects the machine to the sever. SSL is an essential part of the development of secure connections, but useless by itself; it is old software with many known vulnerabilities and exploits. SSL is normally not used at all; the whole protocol is basically TLS with SSL used as an inspiration, or TLS/SSL. All the so-called “SSL” connections are really protocols of TLS/SSL.

What does https do for me if im not entering credit card info or personal data anyways?

So the NSA only sees that you connect to pornhub.com and not pornhub.com/big-black-tranny-dicks.avi

Keep your data encrypted so your isp can't see what you're doing completely as it can when you use HTTP. For example using the HTTTP version of Sup Forums let's them read all the "nigga faggot"s you put into your posts, but if you use the HTTPS version they's see some thing like HF51SD6FS4V34S8 between you and cloudfire.

are ISPs really unable to decrypt their own traffic?

Unless they somehow have some kind of elaborate certificate spoofing/backdoor scheme, your ISP can only see the domain names you connect to, but not any of the actual page content or specific page.

>has no clue how encryption works

Whats that song that goes eith this image. That old russian song they usr in flash memes 15 years ago

Yes.

never trust the certificate jew

>reminder that https is piracy
your isp datamines your connection to help pay for the cost. using https just as bad as using an adblocker.

Why do my cell phone calls need to be encrypted if I'm not discussing my terrorism plots anyways?

So the NSA doesn't touch your dick

I'm a grill ;^)

It's 2017, grills can have dicks too. :^)

This was a valid criticism in a world before Letsencrypt existed.

Everything needs to be encrypted. If non-sensitive data is encrypted just like sensitive data, that means the sensitive traffic doesn't stand out. It looks like everything else.

Private citizens shouldn't have sensitive data in the first place. What, do you have something to hide?

Wrong board FBI.

Yeah, I'm not clicking a link posted by an obvious Russian insurgent.

You're making a mistake in viewing things as "my nation vs. other nation". You should be viewing it as "people and their natural rights vs. national governments".

Sounds like Russian doubletalk. You won't trick me the way you tricked the American voters.

The US government is just as much your enemy as the Russian government or the Chinese government or EU governments. All governments should be denied the ability to read your communications.

A normal government is created by the people for the people. Of course you can trust the government.

>>A normal government is created by the people for the people.
100% irrelevant. It's like that joke about how nine out of ten people enjoy gang rape. Governments lack the right to infringe on your privacy regardless of whether a majority of the population supports them.

If you can't even trust your own government, then why even live? You Russians sure are a nihilistic bunch.

Well never in the whole of human history have governments been trustworthy, and yet somehow, here we are.

Why do you think so many Americans love their second amendment? Our government was set up not to trust itself even.

The 2nd amendment was explicitly written so that frontiersmen could hunt, my friend. It's obsolete.

Completely incorrect schmolo. It was was written specifically so citizens could overthrow their tyrannical government.

That's blatantly wrong. I'm guessing you slept through history class.

"What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms."
- Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, December 20, 1787

...

Nobody cares what some nobody said in his diary. What matters is the argument that was put forth to congress and what's written in the constitution.

"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country."
- James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789
