This is a remarkable story. Fortunately, this ETSI-backed "ETS" standard appears to have just about zero uptake or internet presence, let alone vendor acceptance. So although this is fairly outrageous based on the EFF article, it doesn't look like something that's a big threat to TLS at this point.

PS. I can't even get ETSI's website to load! https://www.etsi.org/



If you're having trouble getting etsi.org to load, try using their static key for diffie-hellman: 0x00000000.


Works every time.


It could be a threat to TLS if they manage to convince NIST to recommend their variant instead of the TLS standard.
