Why does it need https? I didn't see anywhere that it was asking for personally identifiable information (PII) or credit card numbers. Were you considering using the site to transmit clandestine messages to your operatives in the hot zone in Liberia? What's up with this?

He's tired of the CDC calculating how obsessed (or not) he might be about Ebola, publicly based on a parallel construction rather than information which the NSA passes on to them secretly. And simultaneously the UN has figured out that mass surveillance violates human rights [techdirt.com].
