    simple summary:

    HTTP = unencrypted traffic. On an open wlan, everyone can read what you are looking at. Our login form is special as it does not submit your passwords as cleartext over the web anyways.
    HTTPS = using encryption so only you and the server know what you are looking at. Everyone in the middle only sees binary garbage. Results in an open wlan, nobody will be able to see what you are looking at.

    That happens when people embed content that is not using https. I.e. image sharing sites using http. Not a lot we can do about it really :/
