HTTPS Question

[EvilGenius]

Hi,

I was wondering if somoene chooses to switch his site over to HTTPS, (Warez) would it really make some difference, lets say the site is bound to raise some dots on the authority rader?

Just a thought...

highly doubt it. Actually itd probably lower it, as most of the time it says invalid certificate, even when they do have legit cert's. it does on ff anyway

The primary usage of SSL Security encryptions are to prevent hackers from tracking secure information being sent to and received via HTTP,

In this situation it is really not needed unless your doing things such as credit card transactions etc.

Well traffic is encrypted and decrypted on the nodes (client and server) and key is transmitted using diffe-hellman key exchange, so with any data intercepted inbetween your pc and server, nobody can prove what the data contains.
Therefore, SSL @ filehosts = good idea.
Browsing warez sites isn't illegal until you decide to download a file, so encrypting warez traffic doesn't matter.

let just say there is a matter of hosted wayerz
and if the member access it via HTTPS would it be a better practise?
