Mysterious company with government ties plays key internet role
- xrayarx 4y agoTrustCor Systems is a root certificate authority. But its physical address is a UPS Store in Toronto. It is an offshore company and is trusted by the major web browsers and other tech companies. It also has connections to contractors for U.S. intelligence agencies and law enforcement, according to security researchers, documents and interviews.

- anaganisk 4y agoCorrect me if i am wrong but isn’t root trust authority like physically audited? If yes every browser /os who trust them is an accomplice, and much worse than Facebook, this is plain theft of everything a user does ever.
