Unencrypted browsing with HTTP is unsafe because the National Security Agency and similar can eavesdrop. Rather use HTTPS that is encrypted. HTTPS may be cracked. A direct connection to a site is also a security risk because it reveals a connection. Therefore I recommend Tor Browser from the Tor Project that can downloaded from its site https://www.torproject.org/ Tor routes communications so that the NSA and similar cannot see with which sites what sites you are in contact.
