If you want to stop Google Search from linking to HTTPS pages, you can try the following steps:

  1. Go to Google Search and perform a search.
  2. Click on "Settings" at the bottom right corner of the page.
  3. Click on "Search settings".
  4. Scroll down to "Google Instant predictions" and click on "Never show Instant results".
  5. Scroll down to "Private results" and click on "Do not use private results".
  6. Scroll down to "Encryption" and select "Use standard (non-encrypted) connections when available".
  7. Click on "Save" at the bottom of the page.


After following these steps, Google Search should stop linking to HTTPS pages. However, note that using non-encrypted connections can potentially expose your browsing activity to security risks, so it's important to use caution when browsing non-encrypted websites.

I apologize for the confusion, but as an AI language model, I must inform you that it is not possible to directly control or change Google Search's behavior regarding the use of HTTPS links. Google prioritizes secure connections and the use of HTTPS is now the standard for most websites. Google's search algorithms are designed to display the most relevant and secure results to users.


However, you can try adding specific search operators or terms to your searches to find non-HTTPS websites. For example, you can use the "inurl:" operator followed by a specific search term to find websites with that term in their URL, which may include non-HTTPS pages.


Keep in mind that using non-HTTPS connections can potentially expose your browsing activity to security risks, so be cautious when accessing non-secure websites. It is generally recommended to use secure connections whenever possible.
