gollark: Also, I can use HSTS to force HTTPS all the time and stop downgrade attacks.
gollark: Well, I don't, because:- things may default to HTTP, and redirecting them is good- if the user wants anything before TLS 1.2, they're wrong
gollark: My website is configured to only accept TLSv1.2 and 1.3 ~~as part of a conspiracy by computer companies selling newer hardware to run newer OSes~~ for security.
gollark: HTTPS good, however? Without it, our communications would probably all be harvested by the NSA. Thanks to HTTPS, slightly fewer are and/or it's harder.
