The problem seems to be a networking one, due to ISPs with membership in The Club of Blithering Idiots.

Try downloading using an HTTPS proxy, or from a different WiFi netork, say, at work or Starbucks or something.

I am unable to find a site that offers it over HTTPS.

Perhaps Kovid could upload the releases to GitHub? He already does that for the linux download... Or enable HTTPS on download.calibre-ebook.com

ISPs are fun.
