It's good that there are alternatives, particularly those that are outside the scope of US law, where at least some CAs believe certificates can be revoked for copyright reasons [1]. Let's Encrypt says they can revoke your cert if "our Certificate is being used, or has been used, to enable any criminal activity...[or] ISRG is legally required to revoke Your Certificate pursuant to a valid court order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction" [2]. But I'm sure Austria where ZeroSSL is based is still party to a number of copyright conventions and law enforcement data sharing agreements.
