>Many small companies are going have an impact thanks to this.

if those small companies aren't offering secure logins to their users, they should be impacted. that's the whole point. You shouldn't get to risk your user's security just be being small. Implementing SSL is not difficult or expensive, and the prevelance of password re-use means that a small company with an unsecured login is causing a risk all around the net.

we've been educating people about SSL for years. if they haven't figured it out yet, it's time to start shaming them.
