There has been a trend to flip from http: to https:.  Google has been
pushing this.

However there are a set of headaches that come with the transition.
1. clients must have the root cert installed
2. certs expire
3. there is more CPU overhead
4. caching is turned off
5. certs often do not work for some people. People can't access the
website to complain.

In the last week, I have noticed a trend in the other direction.
