HTTPS support

[Akuma]

While animeotk.com has actually supported HTTPS for over 2 years (I had to rewrite some of the forum scripts), it was always using a self signed certificate, which gives users nasty error messages when they try to connect.

Well, no more! After many hours of tinkering with the letsencrypt beta, animeotk.com now has a fully working signed certificate.

So now you don't have to worry about all those people snooping on your wireless connection ;-)

Since there's a topic of what AOTK now supports, I was curious, does AOTK support android browsers? I haven't been able to use a lot of functionality on my default android browser including even commenting. Saw this post and figured it would be a good way to bring it up.

So tell me if I got this wrong. This means if someone uses this site on a router and someone tries to track activity on said router that they wont be able to tell anyone visited this site?

@razzy234 - Most likely the forum just needs an upgrade, which is more of AIs side. I don't come here on Android, so unsure of the problems.

@Spiral King - Yes and no. They won't be able to see what you are doing at all on the site, but they will know you came here for 2 reasons.
#1 You have to look up the IP address for the www.animeotk.com domain to know how to get to the server.
#2 HTTPS implemented a new extension known as Server Name Idenfitication (SNI) a while back so that multiple sites can have an https certificate run off of the same IP address. So during the HTTPS handshake between the client and the server, the client sends the domain it is trying to connect to to the server. There may be a way to turn this behavior off through the server side, but it is not something I have researched.

Don't know what that means.. (Good with computers, but not the programming side of it,) but huzzah!?
