My first thought was terminating SSL at a proxy or using sslstrip with a VPN or something - I feel like there’s definitely a way to do what he wants. Each option might come with some UX cost though.

At the same time, I’d have to Google to figure it out, and I’d want to see if I could optimize for viewing new pages. I think optimizing new pages could also be really important for learning to code. Maybe mosh into a server with a fast, reliable connection and then use that server to access the web with lynx. The idea being that less data would need to be transferred between the mosh client and server than between the mosh server and website. I would suppose that every interaction like scrolling down would have some latency, but new page requests would have less latency. I’m not sure if bandwidth usage and latency would be good enough for their circumstances though.
