Comment (by Aymeric):
So, you are promoting HTTPS Everywhere but it's not an issue for you not
to be able to use the flash proxy tag on https sites? And the Stanford
flash proxy presentation site is using https...
That's a kind of strange, even if one might not trust SSL/TLS with
browsers.
I brought the issue to different lists, always getting the same answer
(security issue to downgrade from https to http but no problem to use
https with http...), lists that do not perceive (or don't want) the fact
that using ws with something more secure on top of it rather than wss can
be better.
Maybe you and other organizations should weigh more in the specification
process.
