HTTPS Everywhere (Chrome) breaks MSDN

Browsing MSDN, page rendering can be corrupted. For example:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb540860(VS.85).aspx

Disabling HTTPS Everywhere for MSDN fixes things.

Using Chrome 18 (Stable, Windows) and HTTPS Everywhere 2012.5.1

added component::https everywhere/eff-https everywhere owner::MB parent::5585 priority::medium resolution::duplicate status::closed type::defect labels

Same on firefox.

If you enable "Microsoft (partial)", then you can not read blogs, such as:

https://blogs.msdn.com/ie/rss.xml

or

MB, can you take a look and let me know if you think you've fixed this in git?

Could have done, I've never observed the original problem. Looking at the example now, it looks exactly the same with or without the ruleset enabled.

Easy way to replicate on Firefox is using Brief @ http://brief.mozdev.org/ and attempting to add the RSS feeds.

With HTTPS Everywhere enabled for MSDN they will fail. Disable MSDN entry in HTTPS Everywhere and it is successful.

war59312, are you talking about installing the brief extension? I worry that that might trigger instances of bug #3190 (moved) too.

Hi,

Indeed, you are correct, sorry did not know about that issue.

But both issues still apply today, that was just a quick method to duplicate this issue with msdn.

It still applies even without using brief.

Thanks,

Will

Okay, it looks like this is actually an instance of #5585 (moved). I'm marking this as a duplicate for now, but please reopen if #5585 (moved) is fixed but this persists.
