When HTTPS is used routinely, the authorities cannot use it as a filter to
mark out certain people who might be worth spying on.
People the authorities might target use VPNs and/or Tor for
encryption.
Such a filter wouldn't work anyway even if blogs like that didn't
demand it. HTTPS would still be used frequently by normal people
when it is actually useful, for protecting private information that
they send and receive.
