Duplicate of #28.

Ignoring SSL certificate errors is not in the scope of this project. There are ways to let ciao trust self-signed certificates, one of them described in this comment #28 (comment).

Sorry for digging this, but I also feel that this should be a feature. Ciao is such a simple service and having to trust a self-signed certificates every time a Docker container gets updated, for example, and unfortunately some of them do create new certificates, is far from simple.

Also a 401 response is, some times, the correct response if the user is not signed in. Ciao shows these with a yellow badge and calls the eye, when it's just the way it should be.
