HTTPS is secure (SSL) version of HTTP Protocol. Main purpose of HTTPS is used to secure the data communication from Sniffers. 

However, it is not a good practice to implement it with every website, because if a website is public and do not require any authentication then, there is no need to attach an additional encryption/decryption overhead to the data communication process.

Also, it is good (not mandatory) if the website Security Certificate is required to be signed by an Trusted signing authority.

Now-a-days, almost every website is using HTTPS for the user/session specific webpages and HTTP for the public pages.

Therefore, If someone is not using HTTPS accordingly, then it must not have awareness about the circumstances.
