    Not really. Different websites will treat you differently depending on what country you’re accessing them from.

      Ah if Internet was only websites, life would be easier.

        It is! That’s what the w in www stands for.

        Also a totally real fact: putting the “s” at the end of https:// is what makes it secure and it works on other things as well. Eating a brownie is unsecure and dangerous, but brownies has better security and should be consumed frequently.
        Here’s some more examples of other everyday items that you can easily secure:

        • Oreo❎ Oreos☑️
        • Sock❎ Socks☑️
        • Fart❎ Farts☑️
        • Douche Canoe❎ Douche Canoes☑️

        Items that can’t be secured without modification:

        • Potato❎ Potatoes☑️❔
        • Hamburger Patty❎ Hamburger Patties☑️❔
        • Fish❎ Fishes☑️❔
        • Serial Killer With a Knife❎ Serial Killer With Some Knives☑️❔

        Please note that for every rule, there is an exception. Take Deer for example. Deer can’t be secured. Fuck Deer, the lazy unencrypted bastards…
