To some extent this would provide a false sense of security, as if the CA misissues a certificate it wouldn't stop it from being used to hijack your session with an iframe.

This. It's already best practice because fooapp.com should be on the public suffix list (which allows Let's Encrypt to be used with subdomains, among other things).

An opt-in would make more sense, since people using HPKP are those that know the most about it. Just like an opt-out, it would have to be via a different channel than HTTP headers.

Without DRM how would movie studios agree to letting you watch their movies on TV?
314.
by nsgi 10y ago
No they wouldn't. YouTube doesn't use EME, at least for user-generated content.

While I'm mostly in favour of EME, I'm sceptical that it wouldn't be possible to strong-arm big content into providing content without DRM. Digital music has transitioned to being sold DRM-free. TV is broadcast DRM-free and c

Still don't understand the problem with the terms in your second paragraph. Copy protection protects CDs from being copied. Digital rights management manages the rights of the IP owner. These are just as valid. Then you have claiming

You can now actually use CloudFlare to issue a custom certificate for your origin server that it will accept (CloudFlare Origin CA), but of course GitHub pages won't support installing it.

Lots of certificates with 100 hostnames each is how CloudFlare does it.

The most surprising thing is that YouTube is on the list of domains to be excluded from this. While they've put in considerable effort into migrating away from Flash, it seems unfair for Google to enforce this policy on their smaller c
