HTTPS Everywhere 3.0 Keeps Your Data Safe on 1,500 More Web Sites [Security]

Chrome/Firefox: HTTPS Everywhere, the browser extension that keeps your data from falling into the wrong hands, has updated to double the number of web sites it supports. If you aren't using it, you should be.

We've talked about HTTPS a lot before: it's absolutely essential if you use public Wi-Fi networks, want to protect yourself from identity theft, and generally just want to keep your online privacy intact. The newest version adds 1,500 more sites, bringing the total number of supported sites up to nearly 3,000. Need we say more? If you're using it, hit the link below to update, and if you aren't using it, give it a try now.

HTTPS Everywhere is a free download for Firefox and Chrome.

Note: It looks like this version supports Gawker sites, but only partially and it seems to break the comment section. For now, if you want to access the comments on Lifehacker, you'll need to disable the Gawker entry in HTTPS Everywhere for now.
