    Can we stop doing certs now?

    Can we stop letting google decide what is and isn’t acceptable on the internet based on who gave them money?

      Certs are free through Let’s Encrypt (and have been for quite some time now, like a decade). Certs makes people peeking at what you’re doing along the route substantially more difficult.

                Damn, if only there was some way to certify that.

                I don’t care?

                There’s a whole internet out there that is disallowed from being accessed.

                Google shouldn’t control that.
