Re:Chrome 68 will mark all HTTP sites as “not secure”
on Friday February 09, 2018 @03:27AM (#16338740)
I would have nothing against it, if browsers just disabled Javascript on plain-HTTP web sites. I do it anyway by default, enabling it on domains where it serves some useful purpose. Treating non-HTTP content as untrusted makes absolutely sense (though I don't think that HTTPS really makes a https://random.l33t.site/ a trusted source of anything).
The old simple plain-HTTP plain-HTML web is still useful and practical for showing text (don't care much even about CSS - HTML 3.2 is perfectly suitable for showing readable information). It seems to become a victim of collateral damage in the pursuit of "better web", which is sad.
