HTTPS downloads?

Thanks for the browser, it's great.

Will the Basilisk downloads on basilisk-browser.org be provided through HTTPS in the future? Also, will the Basilisk browser downloads be digitally signed (like Pale Moon currently is)?

No. it's nonsense to download binaries over https.

Maybe, depending on the release engineering overhead and how easily this can be automated.
