# Bug Report
## Problem
New forced https:// scheme is incompatible with unsecure APIs.
I think there should be an option to use http:// scheme.
(file:// scheme works OK on newer Android devices, but causes issues with
loading ES6 modules on older devices)
### What is expected to happen?
Upgraded Cordova should continue to connect to devices over http: and ws:
### What does actually happen?
Unable to connect to unsecure HTTP API or websocket.
```
Error: DOMException: Failed to construct 'WebSocket': An insecure WebSocket
connection may not be initiated from a page loaded over HTTPS.
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://localhost/index.html' was loaded over
HTTPS, but attempted to connect to the insecure WebSocket endpoint
'ws://192.168.33.144/websocket/ws.cgi'. This request has been blocked; this
endpoint must be available over WSS.
```
## Information
### Command or Code to reproduce issue
Upgrade cordova-android platform to 10.0.
```
ws = new WebSocket("ws://192.168.33.144")
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://localhost/index.html' was loaded over
HTTPS, but attempted to connect to the insecure WebSocket endpoint
'ws://192.168.33.144/'. This request has been blocked; this endpoint must be
available over WSS.

DOMException: Failed to construct 'WebSocket': An insecure WebSocket
connection may not be initiated from a page loaded over HTTPS.
```
```
fetch("http://192.168.33.144")
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://localhost/index.html' was loaded over
HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://192.168.33.144/'. This
request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
```
### Environment, Platform, Device
Cordova app is connecting to a ESP32 webserver via encrypted WiFi. (not on
the internet) There shouldn't be a need to upgrade the ESP32 firmware to
support HTTPS (and even if I did, would a self-signed SSL cert work?)

Cordova: Cordova 10.0
Cordova Platforms: Cordova-Android 10.0
Other Frameworks: none.
Operating System: Win 7 x64
