Thanks for posting here to clear things up. (Sometimes deleting tweets can cause more confusion than it removes.)
Does the blog post I linked to reflect the opinion of most of Namecheap, though, really? I like Namecheap and I would be disappointed if the majority of the company believed that all free CAs will be operated like Let's Encrypt.
- tamar 11y agoI don't think we're making a blanket statement about "all free CAs" here. Encryption is one important aspect that free SSL providers offer, validation and trust is another that isn't offered by most.
- mholt 11y agoI respect that. I hope free certs will be a boon for the EV cert industry, since businesses will need to stand out more as trusted. Perhaps, though, you could pass it along to whomever it concerns, that the blog post reflects poorly on Namecheap. It's obviously targeting Let's Encrypt, but it uses vague phrases like "SSL certs from free providers" that _do_ come across as blanket statements.
