| This option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the SSL3 and | |
| TLS1.0 protocols known as BEAST. If this option isn't used, the SSL layer may | |
| use workarounds known to cause interoperability problems with some older SSL | |
| implementations. WARNING: this option loosens the SSL security, and by using | |
| this flag you ask for exactly that. |
