<p>This page is copied from https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/06/encrypt-web-https-everywhere-firefox-extension, with modification. Today EFF and the Tor Project are launching a public beta of a new Firefox extension called
|
|
<a href="https://eff.org/https-everywhere">HTTPS Everywhere</a>.</p>

|
|
<p>This Firefox extension was inspired by the launch of Google's <a
|
|
href="https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/05/google-launches-encrypted-search">encrypted
|
|
search option</a>. We wanted a way to ensure that every search our browsers sent was
|
|
encrypted. At the same time, we were also able to encrypt most or all of the browser's
|
|
communications with some other sites:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Google Search</li>
|
|
<li>Wikipedia</li>
|
|
<li>Twitter and Identi.ca</li>
|
|
<li>Facebook</li>
|
|
<li>EFF and Tor</li>
|
|
<li>Ixquick, DuckDuckGo, Scroogle and other small search engines</li>
|
|
<li>and lots more!</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Firefox users can install HTTPS Everywhere by following <a
|
|
href="https://www.eff.org/files/https-everywhere-latest.xpi">this link</a>. As always,
|
|
even if you're at an HTTPS page, remember that unless Firefox displays a colored address bar
|
|
and an unbroken lock icon in the bottom-right corner, the page is not completely encrypted
|
|
and you may still be vulnerable to various forms of eavesdropping or hacking (in many cases,
|
|
HTTPS Everywhere can't prevent this because sites incorporate insecure third-party content).
