I am from Iran. In my country, the government has filtered the some web-sites. Recently I have a problem for see the all images in Google Images.   For example:      If you notice,  the protocol is HTTPS not HTTP.   When I try to change it to Http, I can't, because the browser changes it again to Https. I try by some anti-filter program like: HotSpot Shield and or psiphon3 but it couldn't help me. How to solve my problem?

Chrome's default search engine is .  How we can force chrome to use  without https?  I need a solution that allows proxies to rewrite my URLs, but https currently makes this impossible...

I want to avoid censorship from my local mobile ISP (it blocks imgur, for example, for some unknown reason.    Screenshot (click image for larger variant)  I'm pretty certain that I can circumvent this by changing my DNS to Google DNS or OpenDNS, but I'm not really sure how to accomplish this on KitKat.

Imgur is blocked by two of the private ISPs we use. Is there a workaround without involving tunnelling?  Bear in mind that Filmot (an Imgur mirror) and Flickr are also blocked.

I'm currently working in a bank, and while about 99.7% of the internet is blocked, Stack Exchange thankfully isn't (yet) however imgur is.  It means I can't view images posted alongside questions. The only workaround I have found is to search Google images for the URL, but you get a  which is a bit useless.  Does anybody know any clever tricks for viewing the images accompanying questions when you are somewhere where imgur is blocked?  Are there any plans to route the images stored on imgur through a Stack Exchange URL?

When loading TeX.SX over TLS (e.g. ) with HTTPS Everywhere, images are not displayed.  Firefox shows this error (e.g. for ):     An error occurred during a connection to i.stack.imgur.com. Peer   reports it experienced an internal error. (Error code:   ssl_error_internal_error_alert)

Kindly tell me some easy method to bypass proxy. I don't want to used websites like accesstoblockedsites.com.

Clicking on  doesn't connect me with the meta S.Ex.SE site.  EDIT: For some entry points, . Observation courtesy Gilles.  I consider it a pity that the devs have not paid attention to this issue nor have indicated that they noted the problem. While HTTPS is not yet official on this network, I refrain from using unencrypted connections. I can't participate in metas, oh well.  EDIT #2 (2015-11-07) - with the switch to CloudFlare SSL the problem looks finally resolved.  EDIT #3 (2015-11-17) - still getting 403 Forbidden from CloudFlare. D'rats!..  EDIT #4 (2016-01-11) - We're still there. It's 2016 already... Starting a bounty.

I'm in kind of a tight spot right now. I wanted to know if someone has seen a HTML, or PHP web ssh client as both my company and school block everything besides port 80. I'm a control freak when it comes to my servers so yah. I have found things like gateone but here's specifically my issue.  I have access via port 80. I host websites on port 80 if my server. I can run PHP scripts via Apache. I cannot visit sites via encryption. I cannot change the ssh port (trust me, I've tried) I have root access to the server.  Any help or Ideas would be appreciated. If worse comes to worse, I can write my own in PHP.

I started weeding through my site's search results from Google today, using a site: search, to determine if there are any links that cause 404s and thus need redirecting. To my amazement I noticed numerous https:// results relating to various pages. My site doesn't have a SSL certificate, doesn't serve such pages, doesn't internally link to https:// pages, doesn't include any such files in its sitemap.xml and, for all of these, never has.  I decided to do a Google search for https://&lt;my site&gt; and found one site that incorrectly refers to the root of my site with a https:// prefix - I will try to contact them to get them to correct this.  I'm not sure however how Googlebot managed to index the non-root files as https://. I can't find any external links to them and surely, without certification, Googlebot should have stalled at the first request?  I've just added the following lines to the site's .htaccess (although the surfer still has to navigate through the browser's "This site is a security risk. Abandon hope all ye who enter here!" message(s) first to get there):  RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.&lt;my site&gt;.org/$1 [R=301,L]    replacing &lt;my site&gt; with my domain name.   My big question is this though - I would like to use the Google Webmaster Tools Remove URLs feature to remove the https:// pages from the index. Can I be guaranteed that this will only remove the https:// versions of each relevant page and not the valid http:// versions?  My thanks to anyone who can help me out with this particular question and the issue in general.

, we've identified the cause: Firefox's new Tracking Protection blocks these images:      Some member's picture displays as a white square instead of real picture. For example there , the user niels nelsen shows as a white square, but not on Windows. When I click on his profile, something even stranger happens, the top half of his picture is grey, the bottom half is white.  The exact same bug happens for some members only. Let me provide a few of them: , , , and .  Happy debugging!  Edit: Apparently some people believe(d) the ISP was blocking "graph.facebook.com", or something like that. A ping test as well as connections using a browser to graph.facebook.com, fbcdn.net and  seem to point out that the domain is in fact not blocked. Thus, to me, the mystery is still not elucidated.  Adding a picture of the whole thing.

From what I learned, there's one way I could cause all URLs on a domain strictly serving images not to be indexed and that is with the x-robots-tag HTTP header. Now I check my logs and find out that google and even baidu are downloading the entire contents of the image URLs. I was hoping they'd stop downloading when they came across this line:  X-Robots-Tag: noindex, noimageindex   Either I formatted that line wrong (used wrong casing or wrong order of values or something), or search engines are just plain dumb and they just decide to download everything just to waste customer's money.  I looked into robots.txt and thought of using the noindex line but when I did, google complained about having no access to what they call an "important url" when it isn't important.  I don't want to block their IP's because I have text-based content on another domain running on the same server that I want them to index.  I'm tempted to offer search engines the equivalent of what users get if they requested the URL via the HEAD method (full headers but no actual content), but I might get penalized for content cloaking.   Is there something I can do to rectify this?

We're using an AWS ELB to do SSL termination and are having an issue where Chrome is displaying "https" in red with a strikethrough.  It says "The site is using outdated security settings that may prevent future versions of Chrome from being able to safely access it." but it doesn't explicitly call out what setting it doesn't like.  How can I find out what Chrome is having a problem with so that our users will get a green checkmark?  An example URL producing the error is here:     I ran our site through SSL Labs and it gave us an "A" Grade:

Safari is my default browser, and I like it that way. But I want to open Google URLs (Google Docs, YouTube, etc.) in Chrome by default, e.g., when I click on a link in Mail. Is there a system-level way to set the default browser for a sub-set of domains?

I had something set up wacky in our DNS setup which is now resolved. The remaining problem is that chrome has cached the incorrect setup. Specifically, when using Chrome http://example.com is now redirecting to https://example.com (naked domain), which is not valid/supported.  http://example.com SHOULD redirect to http://www.example.com and then force https://www.example.com. But on a handful of browsers (including mine) this doesn't happen because of some funky Chrome caching. I tried going to “Privacy -&gt; Clear Cache” but it had no effect.

I'm trying to get apache to redirect from http to https, however I want them both on the same port (20100, but I doubt that will matter). Basically what's going on  except I'm not doing this for webmin. Currently I have it configured to serve HTTPS, and when I access with HTTP I get:  Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.   There seem to be a lot of somewhat similar questions, however I am unable to find one that actually answers my question.

When I´m in a secure part of a web-site I´m developing (entering a specific page or folder using https), the relative links to the normal pages are automatically converted to https as well. Is there a way to tell an &lt;a&gt; tag to always use the http protocol instead of the https protocol (or the other way around)? I know it´s easy using the complete link ( or ), but I would like it to work with relative links (index.html, ../index.html, etc.).

I'm writing a program that reads content from a user provided URL. My problem is in the code that goes something like this: Uri uri = new Uri(url); WebRequest webRequest = WebRequest.Create(uri); WebResponse webResponse = webRequest.GetResponse(); ReadFrom(webResponse.GetResponseStream());  And this is breaking if the provided url is an https:// URL. Can anyone help me with changing this code so that it will work with SSL encrypted content. Thanks.
