to be clear, none of this is the sort of thing I was looking for.  All
of this is discussions of parts of the Internet that aren't particularly
transparent or interested in letting you have open access to large
portions of the net.
I don't care if the ietf website is accessible from a hotel before you

Based on the discussion so far I'd like to see better justification for
the claim that there are portions of the network that block TLS before
we make it.
