> How many users stop browsing after receiving a mixed content warning I wonder?

That's a blog post (and supporting data drop) that I would be interested in reading. Based on my experiences at a former employer the rate of cart abandonment on mixed pages is about 20% greater than on fully valid pages (someone hard coded a logo reference into a template) but the sample was fairly small and I would be curious to know what the difference would be on a broader sampling of sites.



From what I hear, newer browsers are said to be tightening the screws on mixed content and giving increasingly annoying warnings. For example, showing a red slash through the lock icon.
