A major problem with this is that non-expert users might interpret it to mean that the "green lock" always means everything is ok. That is dangerous advice since it's possible to publish a phishing site having proper SSL. Users need more context than what is offered here to avoid becoming victims of phishing scams.

I also found the content itself difficult to read in both layout and copy. The character names were confusing, and I don't think the three concepts of privacy, integrity, and identity were conveyed in a clear enough sense so that a non-expert could interpret how those are actually 3 different things.
