Gmail Now Using SSL Throughout

Interesting. One of the things that I have been historically bothered by was the lack of use of SSL in Google’s Gmail. They did manage to encrypt the initial login but, that could be potentially captured using hamster. This evening I noticed that Gmail is now, using SSL for the entire session.

If this isn’t news, please accept my apology. It’s new to me.

There is nothing about it on their blog. (as of 10:40 pm EST)

Well, at the very least I’m pleased to see this change.
