Mixed content weakens HTTPS fix14 (#624)
Mixed content weakens HTTPS Requesting subresources using the insecure HTTP protocol weakens the security of the entire page, as these requests are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks, where an attacker eavesdrops on a network connection and views or modifies the communication between two parties. Using these resources, an attacker can often take complete control over the page, not just the compromised resource. Although many browsers report mixed content warnings to the user, by the time this happens, it is too late: the insecure requests have already been performed and the security of the page is compromised. This scenario is, unfortunately, quite common on the web, which is why browsers can't just block all mixed requests without restricting the functionality of many sites.

>“Will McKinley, a New York film writer, is dying to get his hands on a copy of ‘Alias Nick Beal,’ a 1949 film noir starring Ray Milland as a satanic gangster. For classic film blogger Nora Fiore, the Grail might be ‘The Wild Party’ (1929), the first talkie to star 1920's ‘It’ girl Clara Bow, directed by the pioneering female director Dorothy Arzner. Film critic Leonard Maltin says he'd like to score a viewing of ‘Hotel Haywire,’ a 1937 screwball comedy written by the great comic director Preston Sturges.”
