> When I connect to http://get.debian.org/ in a Web browser, I am
> redirected to https://www.debian.org/CD/, which is a HTTPS site.
> However, the initial connection attempt is made over HTTP, and is
> potentially subject to external observation.
> 
> When I connect to https://get.debian.org/, I get a near-instant
> "connection refused" or "failed to connect" error.

> Initial testing seems to indicate that the same basic behavior occurs
> with cdimage.debian.org, which is the old name for the service now
> provided by get.debian.org.
