Browser extensions will redirect HTTP to HTTPS as the request is made, so CoffeeShopWifi can't help you there.

Most sites will send a redirect to HTTPS, which CoffeeShopWifi does not.

So I decided it's safe to make a cert and support HTTPS.

They could stop serving port 443. That would prevent any extensions from automatically upgrading.
