I think we should, as we should every time there is one single big player.
Obviously the ACME protocol is open but currently there are just 5 "free" providers using it (3 from the US and 2 from EU) and nothing blocks anyone to have a US adversary implementing a Letsencrypt-like issuer.
Although I have some doubts on whether that CA would get global trust in every browser. Is the Browser Forum following US sanctions? Can a CA managed by the Cuban or Iranian government enter the CA list trusted by Chrome, Safari or Firefox?
I'm genuinely asking.
