Firefox Extension HTTPS Everywhere Does What It Sounds Like 272
climenole writes "HTTPS Everywhere is a Firefox extension produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. It encrypts your communications with a number of major websites. Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site. The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by rewriting all requests to these sites to HTTPS."

Hmm... if you are trying to encrypt your communications with *Facebook* something tells me you are worrying about the wrong people getting their hands on your personal data.

If you're on a network that my traffic to and from Slashdot passes through, knock yourself out. It will give you the ability to post as me, but not much more.
Oh, wait, you are already posting as me. Bastard.
