To be fair, a poorly managed HTTPS site doesn't offer that much more security than plain text, while increasing the complexity. SSL or TLSv1.0 encryption isn't too difficult to attack given the proper circumstances. Unless Hachi or FT-HS go all-in on properly locking down and maintaining the site, simply getting a cert and enabling HTTPS is setting things up to break once that cert expires. Not much else.
