It's up to the site administrators. With Letsencrypt free cert, the monetary reason is gone. It is common practice to redirect HTTP to HTTPS but still the site owner's prerogative.
Can't the authorities ban it, like port 25 was blocked for smtp?
It's been discontinued for MUA to SMTP relay server replaced by 587. Port 25 is still the port for SMTP server to server.
