I love Scratch, but it is irresponsible of them to still not be using SSL.

Almost there with SSL - we will be rolling it out for testing by the community in the next month, and we hope to get the entire site SSL only by summer 2015. Sorry it took so long.

(One of the annoying things when we tried rolling SSL out a while back: we got a bunch of reports that users with OS X couldn't access the site - turns out the OS X's parental control blocks SSL sites by default unless explicitly allowed in the whitelist: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201813)
