The move to secure most or all of web traffic using HTTPS is generally agood thing; lots of personal information is exchanged via web browsers,after all. Using HTTPS requires web sites to have TLS certificates,however, which has sometimes been an impediment, though Let's Encrypt has generally solved thatproblem for many.
