Isn't everything forced to https now
2 comments

Browsers try to navigate you to HTTPS but no, http the protocol is still working as it always has. Both nginx and Apache will require configuration to serve HTTPS.

You might still use HTTP on an internal network in a DMZ or other trusted network.

Good to know
No.

Some things were never meant to be, like downloading CRLs over HTTPS.
