#6279: Rules: POF / Plenty Of Fish

     Type:  defect                |         Status:  new
 Priority:  normal                |      Milestone:     
Component:  EFF-HTTPS Everywhere  |        Version:     
 Keywords:                        |         Parent:     
   Points:                        |   Actualpoints:     
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 1) POF is made up of many more hosts than just (www.)?pof.com.
  - Documented observed hosts, implemented compact form with *'s.
   (But see Excludes TODO in the case that POF again does not deploy
   HTTPS everywhere in the future.)

 2) Fixed poor forms
  - unnecessary mapping from https to https with 's?'
  - unused non-backref '?:'
  - mapping www to the domain itself

 3) POF is now returning 302 (to HTTP) for all HTTPS requests.
  - Therefore the current rules in git are moot and result in POF
  falling back via redirection loop to insecure HTTP.
  - POF is now completely unencrypted with no HTTPS capability at
  all (except for maybe their payment server). Users should be wary
  about their privacy, account, and financial integrity when using POF.


 printf 'GET / HTTP/1.0\nHost: www.pof.com\n\n' \
  | openssl s_client -connect www.pof.com:https -quiet 2>/dev/null

 HTTP/1.1 302 Found
 Location: http://www.pof.com/
 Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5
 X-Powered-By: ASP.NET


 4) Due to all this, the attached replacement ruleset is disabled
 by default. It should be committed as notes for if/when POF moves
 to https in the future.
