You're managing to argue against SSL. Because it actually provides basically protection against an attacker who can actively intercept traffic to the server. Against that threat model SSL is clearly— based on your comments— providing a false sense of security. We _do_ have protection that protect against that— the pgp signature, but they are far from a solution since people do not check that. (I'm not suggesting we shouldn't have it, I'm suggesting you stop arguing SSL provides protection it doesn't before you manage to change my mind!) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
