Insisting on encryption != opportunistic encryption. And yes, if they require it, that's bad for exactly the same reasons it would be bad for the IETF to do so. > Problem is > that for one of my browsers, it somehow can't get the certificates right, so > every time I go to Wikipedia I get a zillion pop-ups complaining about > certificate problems. Irony is, of course, that in some counties the whole > site is just plain totally blocked. Exactly right. But if we can do it in a way that causes those with the ability to upgrade to an encrypted connection to do so, that's not a bad thing. Ned
