HTTP Only Mode

An extension to downgrade HTTPS requests to HTTP, and "warn" about secure websites (THIS IS A JOKE EXTENSION, DO NOT ACTUALLY INSTALL THIS AS IT DISABLES SECURITY)
HTTP Only Mode is a Firefox add-on that parodies the Insecure Site warnings and tries to force a HTTP only version of websites. It displays warnings for unsecured sites, allows whitelisting of domains, and blocks HTTPS only resources.
