Use https as default #263

Closed acka47 closed 4 years ago

i.e. redirect http:// URLs to the corresponding https:// URL.

The big question is: Shouldn't we better use https URIs in the RDF with https as default?

fsteeg commented 7 years ago

In the spirit of https://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Security-NotTheS.html I'd favor HTTP URIs in the data.

https://www.w3.org/blog/2016/05/https-and-the-semantic-weblinked-data/ also suggests to go on using "http".

dr0i commented 5 years ago

http://lobid.org/organisations and all subsequent URIs should now be redirected to the https variant.

We reverted the change as it meant a huge API break and looking at the logs, several clients did not follow the redirect. Thus, we should only implement this change after an announcement and time to adjust clients (if at all). Closing this issue now in favor of the general issue https://github.com/hbz/lobid/issues/352.
