Comment on Local pop radio station is using its metadata to spread anti Biden propaganda

Funniest thing I’ve ever seen is the docs for Nginx do the same, no http to https redirection. I mean, you would hope that the maintainers for the biggest web server in the world would be able to manage that but somehow… No they don’t.

server serves a protocol on a port. I would rather it not include logic like that. turn off the http port of you don’t want to serve http.

  HSTS + HTTPS redirect is the answer. It’s industry standard for a reason: it’s just as safe as pure HTTPS since you can’t get anything other than a redirect over HTTP, and HSTS protects your users from future attempted MITM attacks. The MDN page for HSTS explains it all very clearly.
  
  Any other implementation is an immediate audit fail in my experience.
  
  There’s no tangible security benefit to fully disabling port 80, and if anything depending on the service it may just drive users away to shadier alternatives.

  that would mean anyone going to http:// will perceive as the server being down so what you are saying will not work in practice
