Seriously? Even the US patent office would balk at an application to patent 90-day trials or 90-day certificates. Also, Let's Encrypt isn't doing trials, so patenting the first wouldn't even make sense.
- _asummers 10y agoEven if it doesn't... wouldn't Let's Encrypt just be able to change the default to 60 or something like that?
- johncolanduoni 10y agoYeah, but if it was a defensible patent they would still be on the hook for using it at all. Thankfully, Let's Encrypt could show literally hundreds of cases of prior art for X-day trials.
