I can confirm that it is specific to Ubuntu. Tested it over IRC with other Linux distros and the builds from Mozilla's website, but they all defaulted to HTTPS.

This has not been fixed. Go to about:startpage or about:home and search from there.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 978444] Re: HTTPS is not used for Google searches
Now Firefox enabled this feature (see http://www.mozilla.org/en- US/firefox/14.0.1/releasenotes/ ), but on my system Firefox still uses plain HTTP. Firefox binary, downloaded from http://www.mozilla.org/en- US/products/download.html?product=firefox-14.0.1os=linuxlang=en-US , works as intended, so it's the bug of distribution. Strangely, OMGubuntu ( see http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/07/firefox-14 -released-with-new-security-features ) published a screen-shot with HTTPS Google search, so it must be working for him. As for me, disabling all add-ons, removing profile and entire ~/.mozilla folder, purging and reinstalling Firefox didn't help. I guess that now the bug should not be on wishlist, but something more important, as upstream implemented the feature. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/978444 Title: HTTPS is not used for Google searches Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: about:home and about:startpage does not use HTTPS which results in the communication being insecure and allows usage tracking and surveillance by a attacker as well as man-in-the-middle attacks.
