I'm curious: why doesn't webroot work for your setup?

Is it possible to do the back end connection to S3 securely instead of over insecure HTTP?

Ah, I was under the impression that they've officially moved it out of the 'beta' naming

Their latest controller (v4?) removed the Flash requirement for both video (playback) and main (maps) IIRC. Do they still have leftover areas that require Flash?

Indeed. I used to do the same, but I've since switched to only using TLS and taking a couple of seconds to say 'a newer version of SSL' to any confused looking faces in the discussion. After a while of doing this I don't see nearly as many confused faces and others have even taken up the procedure! :)

Great! I hope we can stop using 'SSL' (or even 'SSL/TLS') everywhere and start using just 'TLS' now. :)
Re:Can you trust Tor's exit nodes?

Heck, my cellular provider was tracking the HTTP connections of their customers by default to sell profiles to marketing companies. (You could opt out, but I believe the fine print was something along the lines of 'we won't sell your information anymore but we will still collect it for later'). Other Internet providers have offered a cheaper plan to opt-in to traffic snooping for marketing profile building/selling. Tor exit nodes and my residential ISPs are on a similar level of distrust for me.
I've since started using 'whole premises VPN' (all traffic is routed through an encrypted tunnel to a VPS) - I have more confidence in my VPS provider than I do in my residential ISPs. At least the VPS company probably won't use my connection data for marketing profiles..
