-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 In the Tor Browser test suite, we have an https-everywhere test that is
 checking that the URL http://www.freedomboxfoundation.org/thanks/ is
 redirected to its https version when https-everywhere is enabled.

 However https-everywhere rules have been updated to add
 `platform="mixedcontent"` to this host, which make it disabled by default:
 https://github.com/EFForg/https-everywhere/pull/11438

 We should update the test to use an other URL for checking that https-
 everywhere is working.
