Oh, a fake Zeus scam. That makes more sense then. > That scam is mostly used through ad network vector not MITM. Just one more reason why I'm not going to use ads to fund any web-projects I do. ------- I agree that HTTPS raises the bar and makes it more difficult for certain scams. Indeed, I'd go as far as to say that any webpage with user-inputtable data (ie: username, passwords, etc. etc.) is required to be HTTPS. The risks are too great and that's the minimum security users expect these days. But I'm still of the opinion that Web 1.0 style static-sites can be served with HTTP just fine. If there's no usernames, no interativity, and PURELY hosting static content in a community that's relatively lax (again: Minecraft and Eve Online fail. I'd use HTTPS even for a static site if I were doing Minecraft or Eve Online stuff), then I'd think HTTP is just fine. |
