Sure but as a server operator, who cares? I already have zero trust in the client and it's not my job to punish the user for not being secure enough. If they get pwned, that's their problem.

Unless I'm at work where there's compliance checkboxes to disallow old SSL versions I'll take whatever you have.



If you serve insecurely, that means allowing downgrade attacks and malware injection for clients who are trying to do the right thing.

At least if you use HTTP it is blatantly insecure.
