but there might be one or two and, in that case, I'm sorry. We think it's better to do this so you know you're not actually secure than to let Dreamwidth pretend to be secure.

Thank you so, so much for this. For once, I do not seem to be one of the people whose older browser is impacted, but I have been often enough to really, really appreciate an explanation, and an acknowledgment that anybody using something that old might be doing so for a reason, rather than the usual "your browser is ugly and its mother dresses it funny, upgrade now, loser!" attitude that many other sites think qualifies as customer service.

You guys seriously rock.

(And it sounds like the affected browsers will still be able to use the site, just not with encryption? Leaving it up to the users to decide what's priority for them? Awesome.)
