You proved my (overly condescending) point.
You either support older TLS or you don't. Do not try to fine tune it to one known audience. You just locked everyone that is not in the sample you just whitelisted(!) out of your service. But you don't know about them, so no harm? If you think one use case for tls1.1 is OK for one use case, just accept you support it.
Same for every thing else. Every time you use UA sniff, you are doing it wrong. not matter how smart you think you are. You are not. It's just a momentary feel good because you are oblivious to everything else. Just like you felt good when you blocked tls1.1 before knowing of those blind users. Now you felt good allowing those blind users because you still don't know about another group that you might learn tomorrow or never, because you are blocking them :)
- acdha 3y agoThat not proving anything other than that you missed the point that the real world doesn’t always have simple solutions. Sometimes you have to do things which are a bit messy as part of a phased transition and it’s important to know what tools you have available to do so.
- 1oooqooq 3y agoHow did you find out about the blind users? did your excellent testing work find it? No. You screwed up and someone complained. Now extrapolate your arrogant incopetence to your entire user base. How many people do you think you are screwing over that didn't bother to complain and instead just moved away?
