I haven't looked at the announcement personally, so I might be mistaken, but my understanding is that Google is tweaking search rankings in part based on https behavior: Not only do you need to be doing it, but you need to be doing it right. And I agree that if the browser won't do https, then it's the browser that's at fault, certainly not FreeBSD. -- David Benfell <benfell@parts-unknown.org> [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJVHgU/AAoJEBV64x4SNmArfPwP/jmduuaKbhvZQEaM7GOja4+5 DhPkf8GbO14ijJmX+ovhjWDOaZsObuZJooNUkAFRZBVW6UeDWt6rTE1SGoENIXYc bFHt6ri3KCjG6t9yIEUKlIZm9adgsyaQqybvmoZcERod8LrrpbSehKIhnXDr4GUU p2llDvhLCVCY2HmqYsdmjqGYSzPQyrJV+JPYH2UTOLNIrHgOGpBvrZb/ZVQxJrPL 58nANxBrfjFlkoRdlT7tnK4mmRUqNHNlkFO7x8GypMfHHGt6YgHgypIsXUSoKRu+ qAuEiB6Nttlkqy748Or6UnCwXt2uXfadB847PJopy61wb1LkUW3yQhVH30Y+hNcb hNMrlLDSXpNoDfX01KJgC4+n7RS3qgUPQ1HyhTRnq1ul4cIpUxRMtZ+ryzloX+Wx cfbgEk9vr6iV8VhU1HBln2DOLuNPNyRC9X4hwlVSwHQbTsl5AsdT0sc8EXE4yigB SoHggPTY0D/VuKAXefCGgrFM5Ij0m6DmV2ubm3pJbo+ZGX8Bfp8qXsFpZJyRezro ZqS75MBIQRNasRPanEezBiyzBDtd6V/JdlV1vyiti8o5AZMgu+goby1b/t9Y4ic2 z3RN08RYXRs7w6vZdF1J3Ucjin1QI5vC5ah9oET5LGhFQVT54EWkJVvbRHMf4vD+ MVz9xEpuIeu741Q6Ya0W =FCrO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
