Which one of these statements is false:

1. When secure your TLS 1.2 connection with a 128 bit AES key, you can transmit a small amount of data (on the order of ~128 bits) before the entropy is drained from your CSPRNG state.

2. When you generate at least ~128 bits of entropy in your kernel's CSPRNG state, you can generate a very large amount of random bits before the entropy is drained from your CSPRNG state.
