Ok. It's a Firefox Add-on: https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere Questions:
- But: Why can't i find it on the offical Firefox Add-ons site?:
maybe because they did not choose to put it there...? maybe they have more trust in their own servers.
- Did anyone audited the "HTTPS Everywhere" code?
Would you trust me if I say I did...?
- Can someone trust this Add-on? Is it safe to install/use?
As much as you can trust all the other OS/softwares out there... The EFF and the Tor project are supposed to be good people... but who knows...
- If it's so great why isn't it more prevalent?
maybe because many people have no idea what is this https thing... maybe because https is more resource hungry on both sides?
