Tipping the scales on HTTPS

Tipping the scales on HTTPS

The movement to*encrypt the web*reached milestone after milestone in 2017.

Rubbish movement, appealing for the public, but totally wrong, as it gives complete control over the Web content to the certificate centres. They can simply block acces to some Websites by pressing one button.

I would rather have a choice over using http and https (when really needed).

Great article. I personally follow website security and so have interest in the adoption of HTTPS. I see a lot website in SA that don't use TLS, and I wonder if they realise the security risks associated with it? I don't think it's correct to think that "someone" might sabotage access to the internet whenever they feel like it In fact that's the most ludicrous thing I've heard this year Who'd want to do that, Donald Trump, JZ? Come on :wtf:

To many questions and so little background knowledge.
Do your own homework first.
