Absolutely “shocked” I tell you.
loudly places hand on side of face
The hell? There’s no reason to use plain HTTP instead of HTTPS.
And symmetric encryption is wildly irresponsible as well.
Well many of China’s websites don’t even use HTTPS. Look at china.org.cn, or en.people.cn for example
And that’s why you use local instances…
Does this actually matter so long as I just ask it questions I want answers to? I’m not feeding it any personal information. Sincere question. Enlighten me if so.
You wouldn’t believe how little information can be personally identifying, especially when combined with other little pieces.
Also, knowing what’s on the mind of western people, how they write, how they engage in conversations can be extremely valuable information.
Oh no. They will know that I don’t know how to implement cache invalidation in python. /s
Having an app installed gives it a lot of information
Unencrypted just means people on the way to that server can peek
Basically anything else you use here in the west sends all data to Amazon-controlled servers. But they make sure its encrypted so only them can see it. Nice.
