Title: HTTPS versus HTTP
Post by: SunnyDays on September 04, 2018, 04:48:07 PM
Hello dear peers,

There's a slight enhancement with huge repercussions. We all know they are stalkers, in extremis.
I've noticed the forum isn't encrypted, not https. I can help you willingly and free to change that. I'm an experienced software developer and this will give me a good feeling like I can help myself and others a bit.
Microsoft consultant, I've worked for banks and the government.

Let me know.

Love,
Sunny

Appreciate the offer Sunny but the Admins & ITs at our sister site Out of the FOG are in the process of working to switch the sites from http to https. I should add that anyone can see what we write here because we are public but we are all anonymous.  Plus, we advise members not to include personally identifying info in posts or use their real name so OOTS is safe. We are switching to https mainly because Google moves sites up in their search rankings if they are https.
