A fantastic rant about Certificate Authorities and the HTTPS SSL process in general and the security implications of copying and pasting shell commands off web sites and more.
Well worth reading.

Sounds accurate up to the point where I just gave up when I tried to make my site SSL-enabled almost a decade ago. Discouraging that this hasn't gotten any easier over time.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
