What are you talking about? There are plenty of low-cost VPS providers that give you full root access on which you can easily run certbot. That's what I'm doing now, and my hosting provider costs a whopping $20/year.
Say what you will, but pushing for passwords to be transmitted securely isn't Google fighting against the democratization of the Internet. They're doing that in other ways, sure, but promoting encryption isn't one of them.
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoEncryption could be offered without certification authorities that charge huge sums for certs. And there's a link on /new right now about Symantec which continues to reinforce how relying on CAs is a broken concept. So, right now, I have 24/7 American-based phone support (this is a must-have), 99.9% uptime guarantee, WHM/cPanel software licensing included, 60 GB disk space, 600 GB bandwidth included. By all means, if you have a VPS service that can offer all of this at less than $30 a month, I'd love to consider it. I haven't changed hosting providers in a while, but I haven't found a company capable of meeting the requirements.
