Your http isn't secure.

The problem is big, because if anyone controlling wifi router or part of the internet cable of a victim (for example - eddie13 will be our imaginary victim) then, this hacker (which in fact MITM attack) may use connection to your unprotected http site as a bridge to get all information and sensitive cookie from a victim to use it on another site (for example, secured bank payment site or even blockchain.info or anything else).

Attacker just will split connection of our poor eddie13 into 3, one from him to you, second from him to your http site and third to bank site (which is protected by https). Using MITM http attack, hacker will get everything needed to log in into eddie's bank account (even if this secured by TLS or SSL).

There enough free ssl sertificates, for example this one - https://letsencrypt.org/

I never clicked on any of his links.. I only posted "subscribe"...

And yes it has been working good..

Thanks for this tool. It's very useful to have it as PM and I appreciate your work. I'm currently subscribed to a service that allows receiving notifications for merits and quotes but the issue with it is that these notifications simply go away once you click them. Maybe the OP bot could be upgraded to also have the option of notifying for thread responses and merits? Then it'd be a catch all service.

Use this telegram bot, it keeps track of mentions/quotes/merits, Ann: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5209107.0

Also, regarding concerns users have had here, I think we should be appreciative of OP's efforts to create something useful. I'd give him the benefit of the doubt. There's no direct harm that can come from being in the receiving end of a PM. As of having your IP grabbed from a website, I'd agree that it's a possibility but there isn't much that can be done with that alone. I wouldn't associate malice to that simply because of the username.

I sort of agree, literally every single website keeps track of your IP, you should stop using Internet if you want to get rid of it lol (or use vpn, most free ones are garbage tho and may do more harm than good). You are not entering any sensitive information either.
