It's FOSSThe open source project that single handedly destroyed the SSL certification industry.

M/KΞ 🇪🇺@itsfoss i would prefer if other alternative launches, because maintaining half of internet security on one non profit is ... monstrually dangerous, if anything happen to them ... even more with shorter and shorter certificate life.
@makeithappen5634 @itsfoss There's ZeroSSL but also yeah.
P. S. Maybe cloud providers like #DigitalOcean and #OVHCloud could catch up...
@art_codesmith @itsfoss Also would not say no to more alternative outside of US.
some in EU, Africa, Canada etc
Because now we have seen that even a massive country still can go crazy, concentrating all our eggs in the same legislature is madness.
We need more system that run like fediverse, sovereign (as your own server is in your own region), yet global, so even if a country go mad and cut itself, the whole system survive.
Daemon Byte@art_codesmith @makeithappen5634 @itsfoss The Austrian company owned by the american company owned by the Swedish one :D It tries but as a for profit company it's always going to struggle against a free non profit. Although actalis is trying
@daemon_byte @makeithappen5634 @itsfoss TBH this is why I was thinking about cloud companies. If you're already offering compute, network access, firewalls, etc, might as well throw in an SSL certificate for free or cheap.

HTPC NZ@itsfoss so 700M sites... guess non of those include say any prominent far right/Nazi/fascist/anti lgbtq+/objectionable etc sites or anything that offends the perpetually victimised liberals/pmcs (i.e. not the actual victims) or these purity testers here will be having a meltdown telling everyone to use some technically convoluted one that no sane person can actually use or worse pay for their corporate teams one.
🍁voilà-DCKIM🍁@itsfoss just to point out, previously, they were upselling SSL as if it's even a thing... like it's some sort of extra product that you can't make yourself.
They are still kinda doing it too...
