Https everywhere is a good start, it keeps the other plebs at the coffee shop out of your business. But it's still open to anyone with enough power to coerce a CA, which is the more concerning sort of adversary anyhow. So yes, https everywhere, but let's not stop there. | ||||||||

Yes, but we have widely deployed efforts like certificate transparency, and cert pinning. The first makes such attacks widely known events, browsers report by default, and it s provable. It’s very rare. The second allows apps to only trust specific certs or CAs, ignoring system root of trust. I just want to clarify HTTPS in practice is quite secure. | ||||||||
