They probably meant that the reason is malicious, to spy on traffic. Especially since a good chunk of the top sites on that list are Chinese which is known to have generalised spying on internet users.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoGeneralised spying, like USA and UK? We're just seemingly more covert about it.
- Rjevski 8y agoHowever, in a shitty regime like China, surely the government can ask the websites to just hand over the private keys and disable prefect forward secrecy, allowing government spying while preventing anyone else from doing so.
