+  If <a href="/pkg/crypto/tls/#Config.MinVersion"><code>Config.MinVersion</code></a>
+  is not set, it now defaults to TLS 1.2 for client connections. Any safely
+  up-to-date server is expected to support TLS 1.2, and browsers have required
+  it since 2020. TLS 1.0 and 1.1 are still supported by setting
+  <code>Config.MinVersion</code> to <code>VersionTLS10</code>.
+  The server-side default is unchanged at TLS 1.0.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  The default can be temporarily reverted to TLS 1.0 by setting the
+  <code>GODEBUG=tls10default=1</code> environment variable.

+  apply to self-signed root certificates. Practical attacks against SHA-1
+  <a href="https://shattered.io/">have been demonstrated since 2017</a> and publicly
+  trusted Certificate Authorities have not issued SHA-1 certificates since 2015.

+      a <code>Curve</code> method operating on a valid point) has always been
+      undefined behavior, can lead to key recovery attacks, and is now
+      unsupported by the new backend. If an invalid point is supplied to a
+      <code>P224</code>, <code>P384</code>, or <code>P521</code> method, that
