What's even more problematic is when you get into the shady stuff. I believe it's clear that there are things that people have to develop anonymously for their own safety. Examples include PC tools to reverse engineer stuff, console save file editors, etc. However, precisely because those areas are so shady, it would help if there was a way to get code signing certificates of a lower pedigree but with pseudonymity. The shadier things get, the more likely there will be knockoffs with malware. The more likely there will be knockoffs with malware, the more likely some inexperienced user will accidentally get the (ill-signed) malware knockoff.
