Description: Extension to force the use of HTTPS on many sites
HTTPS Everywhere is a Firefox/Iceweasel/Chromium extension produced as a
collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier
Foundation. It encrypts your communications with a number of major
websites.
.
Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS,
but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted
HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted
site.
.
The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by rewriting all
requests to these sites to HTTPS.
