[HTTPS-Everywhere] redesign suggestions

Mon Jan 13 07:29:33 PST 2014

Are you trying to make it friendlier for people who don’t have a good
understanding of how rulesets etc work?

I noticed that you said “websites” instead of “rules” or “rulesets” (by the
way, the original version says “rules” when it seems to mean “rulesets”).
Will people understand how they can be viewing five “websites” at once? It
reminds me of how people wanted a way to turn off Firefox’s mixed content
blocker on a particular site, but determining what the current site is can
be tricky when there are frames, so Mozilla had a bit of trouble with that.
