There is no conspiracy.              (That being said, I'm not sure what browser vendors were smoking when        they decided that a self-signed certificate is cause for a        !sensationalistic! warning, but an unencrypted connection is not.)                     > Sounds to me like there's a market for a rival browser that enables the       > use of TLS 1.0, perhaps with a warning.              Not really. You can (relatively) trivially compile old versions of       chrome/firefox.                     > I assume there is no public domain code available to do [TLS]              https://github.com/eduardsui/tlse              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
