Hey Everyone,

Just wondering why dbpedia.org <http://dbpedia.org> does not support HTTPS?

Are any plans to host DBpedia in HTTPS in the near future?

In the context of DBpedia, what's the utility of HTTPS?

I see HTTPS as useful at a time when crowd-sourcing DBpedia includes allowing SPARQL 1.1 based INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE access, since in that context, identity and access controls (ACLs) become vital. Whenever the project decides to add this kind of dimension, HTTPS will just work, since the functionality is already in place at the SPARQL endpoint level.

Note, even in this ACL based scenario, HTTPS will simply enable verification of agent identity to the SPARQL endpoint, it won't change actual DBpedia entity URIs.
