Summary
Analyze keywords

This add-on will display an interstitial alert before a webpage is visited over HTTP (except if that page redirects to HTTPS). Exceptions can be added temporarily or permanently. Permanent exceptions can be removed in the add-on's options page.

NOTE: Requests WILL NOT be blocked immediately (they get blocked after the headers have been received), as the add-on checks if the visited page redirects to an HTTPS site.

Risk likelihood

HTTP alert may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
