It looks like this post contains a link that does not use a secure protocol: http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/uk/newsid_1581000/1581293.stm.
HTTP is in use instead of HTTPS and no protocol redirection is in place.
Be careful and do not enter sensitive information in that website as your data won't be encrypted.
It's also a good habit to always hover links before clicking them in order to see the actual link in the bottom-left corner of your browser.


More info on this service here. For more information on HTTP unsafety read: https://whynohttps.com   https://web.dev/why-https-matters.

{average of post/comments with HTTP links I found per hour: 23.3}.

This auto-reply is throttled 1/20 to reduce spam but if it still bothers you reply "OFF HTTP". Or reply REVIEW for manual review and whitelisting.

Thanks for noticing. Wow. I would have never guessed bbc would steal my keys. Now I know and I will be careful.

LOL

Jokes aside, the BBC websites had a few quite big security issues in the past.

And this does not really seem very modern either lol
