Proving ownership by sending email to the contacts in the WHOIS record is the _only_ way I've seen for the cheapest certificates. What other ways are you thinking of, and can you point to any CAs that do them (for their cheapest certificates)?
- smt88 12y agoI have no problem with that, but that's not what happened in the article.
- stephenr 12y agoWhere does it say that isnt what happened? It's entirely possible the WHOIS data for the domain in question had several email addresses listed, at least one of which was not blacklisted for use by clients.
