Hi, for all the curl requests in the exercise, why are we practising using HTTP and not HTTPS, even though it is supposed to be more secure in HTTPS?
Hi @benojp,
You are correct in your assumption that HTTP protocol port 80 is indeed inferior to HTTPS due to the encryption which is present with HTTPS protocol port 443.
The reason for showing you is just that, it’s showing a difference between the two and later on the module you may have to examine an HTTP/curl a URL request whereby which may be the answer to the next question.
On enagements you may see HTTP being used aswell as HTTPS!
Stay curious!
