Comment(by jacobske87):

 Thanks for the link - it looks like I was missing the other callbacks.

 I updated the code here: https://github.com/kevinjacobs/HTTPS-
 Everywhere/commit/491c39903cb855bbb9f98a584ab6f548534c4cee and it now
 works for the previously problematic sites.

 I feel like this is a really hackish (bad) way to do this - Is there an
 easier way to toggle the other callbacks (I'm not even seeing
 addEventListener/addObservers for them?), or just use the if/else
 statements? I'm open to suggestions.

 Lastly - When I toggle enable/disable, I'm only having it reload the
 current tab. Are you okay with this? I feel like reloading all tabs is a
 little too aggressive (e.g. background Youtube tabs would start replaying,
 any unsubmitted form data could be lost, etc).

 Thanks for the feedback - I'm still learning the codebase.
