> The EFF has announced the availability of a new Firefox add-on called
> HTTPS Everywhere. As the name implies, it forces the browser to use a
> secure connection when the user visits a supported Web site.
>
> Although many Web sites support SSL, it isn't always used by default,
> which means that users are sometimes exposed to the risk of snooping
> and data interception by unauthorized third parties. The add-on aims
> to mitigate that risk by directing users to HTTPS URLs whenever it is
> possible. The add-on currently works with several popular
> destinations on the Internet, including search engines and social
> networking Web sites. Users can configure their own sets of rules to
> enable the feature on additional sites.
