Then the industry will have to explain to its regulators that the latest 
version of the standard prevents them from doing what is required, in the way 
that it was, apparently, traditionally done.  You can intercept and monitor TLS 
1.3, but it mus be done at one of the endpoints, not via a passive intermediary 
watch traffic.   We removed that capability because of the threat of 
national-scale actors doing such things on a global basis.
