Sounds like a great use for the new free SSL cert.

I'm not sure if we actually do anything on here that requires encryption. It is after all a public forum. If anyone is re-using passwords on here they're very foolish indeed. Other than that, what's there to steal? My email address? Secret exchange server recipes? SAM's favourite RAID configs?*

Still someone can get people's passwords and start posting crap in a public forum. That can be damaging. Sites that require logins should always be over SSL.. else why is there a login?

You'll save $100 on a crappy laptop and then spend $20,000 when you're identity is stolen from them sending your info via plain text.

Attempting to resist posting: "LOL. That is all"

@MattSpeller For me it's about just making everything online encrypted.
Hide the important things in the noise. Right now the use of encryption is more of a flashing red light to those looking that someone has something to hide. OK that's over stating it, there are plenty of sites that use encryption, but I'd rather the sea just be nothing but.

To me, it is not even that.
It is hide everything in transit.
What I post is highly public for multiple reason. Not the least of which is the use of my name.
But when I am posting I want the expectation of knowing that no one in between me and the site I am posting on has the ability to scrape anything plain text out of the packets in transit.
