[QUOTE="TairikuOkami, post: 858442, member: 61892"] Google's intention were probably good, but making webpages https made users to believe, that they are all safe. Getting a certificate is as easy as ordering a pizza. So while it helped to prevent MITM, it made phishing easier. On the side note, Yandex browser addressed a local MITM by itself. It is those little details, that makes it great. [URL unfurl="true"]https://yandex.com/support/browser/security/wifi-protection.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
