If you have a target on your own back thanks to cert transparency logs, it's a bit like closing the barn door late for you to find fault in your own being in Texas when sharpshooters are about. If your only defense was obscurity, your ass is hanging out, and it's no one's fault but your own when you find fault with others for simply saying so.

- dijit 1y agoIn my original comment I said (I thought) quite clearly that obscurity as your only defence is a terrible idea. But painting a target on your back is not exactly justified just because hiding yourself isn’t a good defence in of itself.
