I think the government has not kept up: Just like law enforcement is not effective in protecting you against cybercrime, the FTC and Congress haven't kept up with trade issues on the Internet. It's 2017; these issues are no longer new. I like Mozilla, but in the long run there's not much reason to think that the current arrangement will take seriously the interests of users and consumers, as well as CAs, small browser vendors, others using public key crypto, and other stakeholders. Those people need a seat at the table, a vote, power. That's what democratic government and regulation are for: Situations where power should be distributed democratically, not to whomever has the most marketshare.
