Encrypting the web

I'm not sure what I think about this.
I get VB's point that we should be allowed unfettered private communication.
But, dog's is right as well, this is a public forum and anyone who cares to, can read the tosh that I, and the rest of you post.

SSL or not? I don't think I mind

Not everything on this site is public - PM's, the phone numbers thread and everything else in the 'Private' section etc..

And anyway, that is beside the point. VB believes(as far as I can see) that internet traffic of any kind should not be open to snooping by 3rd parties, including governmental ones. Since he has control over the way that some information flows across the net then he is proposing putting his opinion into reality. The fact that he has even asked us our opinion shows what a community minded fellow he is.

VB, I'm in favour.
