So I was viewing reddit and stumbled upon a link leading to another reddit page so I scanned it with virustotal (clear) and clicked on it. It did bring me to a reddit page but I noticed it was http. The weird thing is that the page also had a https version. So now I am confused on whether it was safe I entered a http website and also why there are two identical pages but one with http and another https.
It may be ‘safe’ but absent HTTPS, you can’t be 100% sure of the site’s ownership and your traffic is unencrypted.
What if it’s simply for viewing and I didn’t click any links or enter any info. Is it safe then
