Please dont use https!

Hi I saw a suggestion about using a secure(https) connection in order to hide information from bosses etc... But I would like to share U the problem we have with the firewall we use. In my case the https in black listed by the corp I work for so it would be very kind of U not to move to https :)
By the way U R doing great job with the Ajax interface

Https is usually optional: if done properly one can simply remove the s from https:// and access a site over unsafe connection.

That said: a corp that has https firewalled should fire its sysadmin. Right away. Its useless, senseless and stupid. https is Safe, this sysadmin forces you to send your corporate info over unsafe lines. weird.

That FW configuration is actually required in countries where the government fears encryption because it prevents them from monitoring activites and content.

It is common to bypass firewalls by using the HTTPS port for other things. This is probably the actual reasons most companies that block it do.

In any case, this item is useless. You should just vote the initial suggestion down.
