Chitchat Forum upgraded to SSL - a few bugs working on it now

[Leongsam]

Who wants to tap your message? It can be seen as plain text when it reach it's destination. That's what a forum is for, so that everybody can see your message.

The messages are not the issue. It's things like log ins and confidential information exchanged via PM.

Re: Forum upgraded to SSL

Lemme put it this way... In the old days we sent txt messages which were not encrypted at all. All the logs sat in the server at the Telcos and any technician who had access to the logs could read everything you sent and received. Now instant messenging like whatsapp is encrypted. Only the sender and recipient can read the messages. They cannot be hijacked en route.The same now applies to the forum. It's just a case of moving with the times with regards to privacy in this uncertain world we live in.Just working on few bugs at the moment eg the wysiwyg icons are not showing. Should be fixed soon.

U mean to say that singtel could read all the posts we made from our computers to your forum? wtf? ................. i hear footsteps coming to my door now.

Relax. You're far too insignificant to warrant any attention.

It's a matter of safeguarding privacy. Some don't care and some might.

I'm just catering to those who feel more comfortable if the private info they transmit is encrypted.

If it's no different for you then that's fine.

In your case it is highly unlikely because you are insignificant.

Just click on the forum banner it should go away. The CSS is not loading for you for some reason.
