what benefit is this "root certificate" over letsencrypt ? why force users to install certificates? can we define what websites are compatible with a said certificate so a *.gov for example?
- webmobdev 5y ago> what benefit is this "root certificate" over letsencrypt ? It's issued by the spanish spy agencies rather than NSA - wouldn't you as a patriotic citizen of Spain trust your own intelligence services over foreign ones? ;) This is not a new debate though - when Let's Encrypt was launched some netizens had pointed out that similar setups existed but no one (read BigTech) embraced it till an "American" solution appeared.
- yakak 5y agoThere's a mention of pkcs#11 presumably for client certs.. Letsencrypt only signs host certificates.
