During my presentation on Firefox in April[1] I mentioned the HTTPS
Everywhere addon, but also that Firefox has add some HTTP enforcement
for maybe would did not really need the extra addon. But I needed to to

Everywhere in January 2023 because all the major browsers enforce HTTPS
well enough that it is no longer needed.

Now time to pick some lotto numbers, and place my life savings in a
