No illusion whatsoever. OE looks to browsers just like HTTP - no lock icon, nothing. This is http: protocol.

For what it's worth, YouTube does use HTTPS for My Little Pony shows. Actually, there's a hidden service on Tor for that. (I'm not even joking.)

Thanks, that makes sense. As long as people understand that although it's encrypted it's still not really safe. That could be the hard part though, as I expect a lot of people assume anything encrypted is safe (related, see malicious SHA1 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8136526).

Sorry, but the link you posted is not even remotely related.
