So that may not be okay. That doesn't seem to be the case. See <http://www.akamai.com/html/io/io_dataset_v2.html#stat=browser&top=5&type=bar&start=20140305&end=20140405>. That's not for TLS alone, but Chrome + IE + FF is far greater than Mobile Safari + Android Webkit + all Others. Given that, it would be surprising if Mobile TLS far outnumbered Desktop TLS. And even if so, the number of connections that can get through if you sacrifice some class of connections is still much greater than the number of connections that get through if you let the attacker suppress them all. -Brian -- Brian Sniffen Information Security Akamai Technologies
