I’m not saying you’re wrong, but do you have a source on that?

That feels like a bold claim to make without any references.

It doesn’t matter much what your web site has today. If it’s available over HTTP an attacker can inject whatever it wants into the page without too much trouble at all.

Let's not pretend that HTTPS only exists to please Google. It has very real benefits for your users.

That's not necessarily true (yet), that's literally what this legal case is about.

I'm in the priority group for a flu jab and I managed to get a jab from a pharmacy no problem. YMMV, though.

I might be missing something, but what does this have to do with COVID?

> What's wrong with doing something just for the hell of it?

That isn't the goal of this project though. From https://brython.info/static_doc/en/intro.html:

> Brython's goal is to replace Javascript with Python, as the scripting language for web browsers.

Given that stated aim, I feel like the original criticisms have their place here.

> I checked the crime categories and there's no mention of cyber-crime.

Good spot, I haven't looked myself but there is a list (https://data.police.uk/static/files/police-uk-category-mappi...) of the full list of categories; it may be that cyber-crime falls into one of the other categories provided by the API.

S3 is an object store, not a file system.
