Mentioned below that HTTPS-default (which is an option in ordinary Firefox) is intended to become mandatory in Tor-browser.

I use this on my main PC. Once or twice a day I might visit some old or especially cantankerous site that doesn't do HTTPS, I get a full page interstitial explaining the problem, I can decide if I'm OK with that. Otherwise every single link, typed URL, etc. is HTTPS regardless of whether that was what was originally written.

I wouldn't recommend it in its current state for my mother, but it's definitely what someone using Tor would want, and it's only getting more ubiquitous.
