@frostwolf @prehensile oh is that true? SSL fails to mask hostname, but DOES mask URL?

@deafferret @frostwolf @prehensile Yes that is correct. I have to explain to customers that if we proxy their HTTPS traffic, we can’t break and inspect it unless we terminate TLS there and one of the popular things people want to do is block certain paths (usually NSFW subreddits or what not)

@frostwolf @deafferret @prehensile Also prior to SNI you wouldn’t even see the hostname, just the IPs but something something scaling and they made SNI a thing and now it appears to be even enforced by many platforms I’ve used

@frostwolf @swaggboi @prehensile Well shit, thank you for educating me. Clearly I need to install an SSL certificate so my legions of users have plausible deniability between jays.net/genealogy and jays.net/WireFraud ;)

@deafferret @frostwolf @prehensile Honestly I agree with the premise of what you were saying. My personal homepage does not need SSL. I’m just here to talk shop 🍻
