This is great news. I really hate to see companies charging for SSL, though. Security on the web is something so essential, forcing people to pay in order to be safe is just evil, in my opinion.
- aroberge 15y agoWords like "evil" get thrown around rather too quickly, imo. Paraphrasing the above: I really hate seeing companies charging for door locks. Security of your house is something so essential, forcing people to pay in order to be safe is just evil, in my opinion. ... Someone has invested time and money to develop a product; there's nothing evil for them in wanting to recoup their money and build a business around it.
- ch0wn 15y agoI have no problem with paying for a good product, and this is definitely worth paying for. What I don't like is driving customers into a corner where they have to decide whether they want to pay or keep their users unprotected. Too many go for the latter choice and harm the web as a whole.
