Hi Mike,

TLS 1.3 represents the best intentions of a huge number of contributors.
Compared to earlier versions of TLS, 1.3 received much more scrutiny, from
academics and industry folks alike. It's much more secure than earlier
versions of the protocol as a result of this process. For more on this, I'd
invite you to listen to Thyla van der Merwe's talk at Real World Crypto
2018: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4caEr9hh98. The process isn't
perfect ... there may be bugs that lurk in TLS today, and bugs are likely
to arise as the protocol evolves. But the process hasn't been "hijacked".

Would you care to elaborate on your concerns around tracking of users?

Best,
Chris P.
