Yes there are a number of ways to do the redirect, the point again is that an HTTP to HTTPS redirect isn't something that necessarily /should/ always happen (even if it should in almost all cases), and isn't on its own an indicator that something is broken.

Elk1337 @elk1337.com · 28/04/2025

Yes and HTTPS is the correct and best solution to use almost always, the point I was making originally was in reference to an HTTP to HTTPS redirect "supposing" to happen, which isn't necessarily true and in some cases HTTP may be chosen for reasons that might not put a premium on end-user security.

And browsers do indeed, correctly, tell you that a site isn't secure (because it isn't), but not everything needs to be secured.

000

Elk1337 @elk1337.com · 28/04/2025

I am not wrong, and the linked article stating "if you think youre smart enough to not use HTTPS everywhere youre wrong" is usually right. However, the site in question here is an ideal example of a site that gains no real benefit from HTTPS protection.

Elk1337 @elk1337.com · 28/04/2025

redirecting from http to https is a decision made by the application owner and isn't necessarily something that should happen automatically. there are good reasons for either option, in cases of sites that have no login or user information storage, HTTP availability offers better accessibility

If there’s only one business in a segment this makes sense, but if you have 10 auto manufacturers that improve ads to the point that the market is saturated, they won’t stop improving ads because now they need to capture market share from the other 9 manufacturers.

I've read that they are threatening federal employees with litigation to discourage disclosing that (very public now) information as well -- isn't it against the law for the government to threaten or disrupt the free speech of citizens, whether they're federal employees or not?

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging: 1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal. 2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

I agree, I think any minor victory (e.g. the Mexico tariffs canceled because of promises of Mexican border troops) is going to be used to keep good will among the right's base, regardless of the actual terrible cost and true purpose of the tariffs.

I don’t do that but I love after-AppleJacks milk so much that I once emptied a bit of milk out of a gallon jug, funneled a whole box of AppleJacks in and let it sit overnight. I strained it and had a container of AppleJacks milk for like a week. I’m uncertain of any food safety implications

EXCLUSIVE: The Social Security Administration has stopped allowing people to make changes to their sex identification with the federal agency, an “emergency” change that was issued on Friday and went into effect “immediately.” Subscribe to Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/social-sec...

Although the Social Security Administration (SSA) took down the page on how to change your sex identification days into the Trump administration, there were anecdotal reports of changes still being allowed in the time since.

On Friday, however, an “emergency message” was issued internally stating, in part, “Effective immediately, we can no longer process changes to the sex field on the NUMIDENT.”

NUMIDENT, or Numerical Identification System, contains all of the information provided to obtain a Social Security number and includes a listing of a person’s sex.
