Just a quick note to let those of you who care know that our load balancer finally got bumped up to openssl 1.1.x and is now TLSv1.3 happy. For those of you who are especially paranoid, "ssl_early_data" is explicitly set to "off" in the nginx conf file, actively disabling 0-RTT, even though it's disabled by default.

That's all, carry on.

    Suuuure, that's what someone would say if they wanted to lull us into a false of security. There is no proof of this!

    Join staff and do work, you can look for yourself. After the six week mandatory reeducation camp, of course.

    You can verify early_data is off, though you can't verify the contents of the config file (or that it was read, or that it wasn't over-ridden on the command line...) externally, its a communication protocol after all.

    The answer here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53350763/nginx-1-15-6-with-openssl-1-1-1-earlydata-not-sent [stackoverflow.com] contains the openssl commands to verify it, or its inverse.
