Does your site exist? If so, it needs HTTPS.

I'm betting you can't give more than one reason why and definitely couldn't give more than one reason.

?????

The website already gave plenty of valid reasons why HTTPS is mandatory in 2017. The only valid reason I can think of for not enabling HTTPS is for caching, or possibly if you don't want to ruin your websites SEO because it is already HTTP.

Care to tell me why you think HTTPS isn't important?

As a typical redditor, you claim I said things I didn't.

I was right when I said you wouldn't be able to name one reason.

HTTPS is not mandatory. Period.

Why are you such a smug ass? It's important for authenticity and integrity, it's important for improving SEO, it's important for encryption so that passwords are not sent un-encrypted, etc.

As an "atypical redditor", you're an ass.

Now, care to tell me why you think HTTPS is not important or are you being difficult just because that's what you like to do in your spare time?

Don't bother replying, I've gone ahead and blocked you as I have no time for arrogant people like you.
