Hey everyone,
So, I’ve been messing around with curl ignore cert for testing some APIs, and I’m kinda paranoid about security risks. Like, I know using `--insecure` or `-k` is super handy to bypass SSL cert checks, but I don’t wanna accidentally expose sensitive data or something.
Anyone got tips on how to use curl ignore cert *safely*? Like, should I only use it on localhost or in a sandbox environment? Or maybe there’s a way to test without disabling cert checks entirely?
Also, is it a bad idea to use curl ignore cert on public networks? I feel like I’m overthinking this, but better safe than sorry, right?
Thanks in advance!
