My question is why is ten going https.....?

Been getting this the last few of days, I believe since Friday past.
 
Yeah after reading through the article I can see where that might be true. I guess only Admin can clarify. Anyway the https protocol is usually reserved for secure sites like banking, payment sites, registrations, stuff like that. Just haven't seen too many "public" sites use it. I guess there's a push being led by Google to use it more.

Yup weird for a public site, but atleast our passwords are protected from the "Man-in-the-Middle". I mean I know any personal information posted can be seen, but there are still people that use the same password everywhere:warn:.
 
Google are pushing more and more for SSL everywhere, for an existing site going from http to https would class as a full url change and complete reindex by the search engines which is a very major thing to do, so as TF is only very small yet and implementing SSL is pretty trivial we have made the move now.

Thanks Z. And yeah, that's good info.
 
As an aside, I can get there now in Opera. I had just taken an update to Avast and restarted before trying, so connection or not, I'm happy not to have to use Pale Moon just for 10F. A Guy
