Licensing issues aside, it would cost _additional_ money to actually serve all that content to a global audience (shipping bytes over the internet isn't free).

It would also be useful if you can tell us which IP you're connecting to when you see the error (eg from dev tools).

No, as of chrome 68, http will be marked as not secure without waiting for any user interaction at all. The change for http pages outlined in this post is to upgrade that from the grey info message to a red warning.

"...the leaked information is from any website which was using the service..." Potentially, yes. Not just HTTPS, but those are obviously the more worrying cases. It's not possible to know the totality of information that ha
