[HTTPS-Everywhere] Issue - utm.gif firing off twice

[brendan.halloran at diird.vic.gov.au]

Hi,

I would like to report that when https-everywhere is enabled in FF, it
forces the Google Analytics utm.gif to be fired off twice - once to
http://www.google-analytics.com/__utm.gif and once to
https://ssl.google-analytics.com/__utm.gif

This is unnecessary, as Google Analytics will by default use HTTPS if the
website's protocol is HTTPS.

The rule to update is found at:

https://gitweb.torproject.org/schoen/https-everywhere.git/blob/every-last-rule:/src/chrome/content/rules/GoogleAPIs.xml

Lines 2 and 3 should be removed.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Kind regards,

Brendan.
