The US doesn't limit exported crypto anymore since 2000, and South Korea was still using the ActiveX-based solution as late as last year.

- kuschku 9y agoActually, the US still partially restrict it (I as a German had to file dozens of forms with the US DoD due to that already), but you are correct, TLS up to 1.3 is entirely public worldwide. But obviously, by 2000, many sites were already using the South Korean crypto, and deprecating it would be just as complicated as deprecating TLS 1.0 or SHA1 TLS Certificates in the US. The browser vendors consider that impossible — the South Korean situation is just as problematic.
