MODERATORS
This article isn't about browsers or websites, and even acknowledges in the opening that it makes sense as a usability tradeoff in that context.
I clearly didn't read it. It makes sense, if users aren't visiting the API then it really doesn't matter that it's not redirected on insecure connections.
I love the honesty. It's really refreshing to see someone take accountability instead of becoming defensive.
