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