I dont understand why they are doing this. .exe files are known to be dangerous so usually when one downloads it you make sure its from a safe website. How is blocking non-https .exe downloads making this any safer for end-user?

I am getting fed up with Google trying to steer how the web should be. Already changed to Firefox.

Also when I think about this, this only hurts legacy windows applications which probably is hosted on a non-http site. I dont like this move at all.
