To my best knowledge, activists from China did plead to remove CNNIC (China Internet Network Information Center) root cert from Mozilla Firefox but failed.
That cert was added as
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=476766 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=476766
and the plea for removal
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=542689 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=542689
Till now, CNNIC CA cert is part of builtin authority bundled in Firefox.
CNNIC was a controversial organization not only because of its govn't background but also its involvement with an infamous malware years ago.
And I cannot get access to bugzilla.mozilla.org without using a secure proxy from China as 'Server aborted the SSL handshake'.
