Bug Description

As discussed in https://garron.net/crypto/hsts/hsts-2013.pdf, we should close the MITM opportunity when users type "libravatar.org" in their URL bar by adding HSTS headers in the 301 redirect from https://libravatar.org.

mod_alias doesn't normally add headers to non-200 response. That's why we'll need to use the "always" condition:

  Header always add Strict-Transport-Security: "max-age=15768000"
