#12554: https interferes with linked youtube videos on phpBB sites
----------------------------------+----------------------
Reporter: Steve999 | Owner: zyan
Type: defect | Status: new

Component: EFF-HTTPS Everywhere | Version:

----------------------------------+----------------------
I subscribe to http://www.akff.net/forum/ and
!http://www.kfdu.com.au/forum/. Both are phpBB sites
BACKGROUND
Discussion on those websites sometimes involves the linking of youtube
videos. When creating links to youtube videos, https is not permitted.
Youtube URLs need to be modified by the removal of the 's' from a link.
For example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCG-b46fdqg
needs to be modified to
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCG-b46fdqg
to enable linking. This is obviously not an HTTPS issue but demonstrates
that the site does not handle https content.
PROBLEM
With https everywhere enabled, youtube videos posted by others are not
visible. Instead of the video, white space is displayed.
Chrome Version 2014.26.6
