It may be below your personal political point of view, but I have yet to hear one single porn-site say that lack of encryption is below their standard. That's only funny until you remember that they and they move about 30% of the HTTP bytes on the net. Furthermore, television is being "de-cabled" and I have yet to hear any of them wanting to first expend effort on DRM encryption and then wrap that in an extra layer of encryption because it would be "below the bar" for somebodys "best practice". HTTP/2 is a protocol Mike, it is not a policy. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
