I'm developing an extension for chrome and for some reason I need to disable the following transport protocols: HTTP/2, SPDY, QUIC, basically only HTTP/1.1 should be allowed.

Theoretically I can modify to soft-disable HTTP/2 by changing HTTP "Connection:" request header. Using “Connection: keep-alive” prevents “Connection: upgrade”. but this method is not guaranteed for "https" URIs, because HTTP/2 over TLS uses the "h2" protocol identifier.

Could I somehow to force start using only HTTP/1.1? If on, is there a method in the browser API that can closes idle sockets as it does a button on this page chrome://net-internals/#sockets.

Have you tried to use an AJAX request and host this on a separate domain with a separate HTTPS certificate? – Jessica Rodriguez Oct 30 '18 at 09:10
