Comment(by schoen):
I just did a test using 32-bit Firefox Nightly 2013-02-01 built from
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/50cf5bbcb180, with NewsFox
1.0.8.4.1.1 and HTTPS Everywhere 4.0development.5.
I subscribed to the insecure version of the Google News feed at
http://news.google.com/news?pz=1&cf=all&ned=us&hl=en&topic=h&num=3&output=rss
and refreshed the feed. The feed was successfully populated with
articles, and Wireshark showed that the connection was being made over
HTTPS, not HTTP. (I also checked that this URL would have been rewritten
by HTTPS Everywhere, and that the rewritten and non-rewritten versions
both contain RSS content.)
Looks good!
