Your assumption is that visiting example.com gets the benign content from example.com, but without security ANY http connection can be made to serve nasty malware.

I'm generally not worried about HTTP connections. Any random hyperlink I click on can produce those. However Ajedi32 made some very good points that being able to MITM HTTP connections can cause lasting issues, even for pages where the user is not intending to download anything, nor enter credentials.
