I have noticed with Chrome that using a bookmark for Mathematica Online will sometimes establish an HTTPS connection, but other times won't. In other words, Mathematica Online sometimes establishes a simple HTTP connection and displays my recent notebooks.
Thanks for reporting this.
So your bookmark has https in it, but when you click the bookmark it ends up opening a http url?
Do you know if you are signed into the cloud when this happens?
Yes, I think that activating something like EFF's browser extension is one lesson learned from this.
I've got similar failures once or twice, no extensions installed, using almost fresh Chrome
Thanks, I can reproduce this and I have reported it
Not as of yet. But I just read about it. Thanks.
Thank you. And just for completeness, you do not have any extensions installed which do any sort of url rewriting (like the HTTPS Everywhere extension or something similar to that)?
