heartbleed was much much worse than unencrypted logins.

I agree that the worst case scenario is much worse; I don't see how it was much worse for the average website of a small business.

heartbleed let you get random memory out of the webserver!

Android 2.x doesn't support SNI either, it's not just IE. (20% of Android users: https://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html ) But I agree, it has dwindled rapidly. :-)

20% of android devices, but definitely not 20% of any website's android traffic. the amount of web traffic that comes from those android phones is approximately 0 unless maybe you're in africa or china - the people who still have android 2.x phones aren't browsing the internet with them.

Not true. Only devices with regular Google Play store access get shown in those statistics.

The 20% are users with at least regular Wi-Fi access.
