What is the difference between http and https


What is the difference between http and https

Don't know how many of you are aware of this difference, but it is worth sending to those that may not.The main difference between http:/// 
<http:///> and https:// is it's all about keeping you secure. HTTP stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol.The S (big surprise) stands for "Secure". If you visit a Website or webpage, and look at the address in the web browser, it will likely begin with the following: http://. <http://./>. This means that the website is talking to your browser using the regular 'unsecure' language. In other words, it is possible for someone to "eavesdrop" on your computer's conversation with the Website. If you fill out a form on the website, someone might see the information you send to that site.
This is why you never ever enter your credit card number in an Http website ! But, if the web address begins with 
https://, <https://,/>that basically means your computer is talking to the website in a Secure code that no one can eavesdrop on.If a website ever asks you to enter your credit card Information, you should automatically look to see if the web address begins with https://.

If it doesn't, you should NEVER enter sensitive information such as a credit card number.PASS IT ON (you may save someone a lot of grief).

Dear all ,
The whole world is scared of China made "black hearted goods"
Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China ? Let me tell! u … the first 3 digits of barcode 690.691.692 is made in CHINA . Do not ever buy it for your own health.

471 is Made in Taiwan 


If the 1st 3 digits are 690, 691 or 692 - China made
If the 1st 3 digits are 471 – Taiwan made


This is a human right to know, but the government and related department never educate the public, therefore we have to rescue ourselves. Remember.

With more and more milk products from China and Taiwan having problem. We really got to check where the things are produced. Here is a way to differentiate Taiwan made products and China made products : by looking at first three digits of its Bar Code.






Nowadays, China businessmen know the consumers do not prefer products "made in china", so they won't show made from which country.
However, you may now refer to the barcodes, if the first 3 digits is 690-692 then it is made in China .
