Let's Encrypt is 10 years old today!
Let's Encrypt is a free, automated, and open certificate authority brought to you by the nonprofit Internet Security Research Group (ISRG). Huge thanks to everyone involved in making HTTPS available to everyone for free

@Some_Emo_Chick I'm not sure, but will I use certificates from a so called phishing CA? .... a difficult question ...
@Some_Emo_Chick They were not the first (anyone remember startssl.com?) but they sure did a great job with the automation.
The web is now safer because of @letsencrypt
@Some_Emo_Chick I do congratulate @letsencrypt even tho @cacert was way earlier there and only got #cickblocked by #GAFAMs like #Aoole & #Microsoft who refused to integrate it and @mozilla who didn't integrate it either.
- The reasons why are the most abdurd given compromized CAs as well as free, non-#KYC-Certs were accepted without warning...
Meanwhile #LetsEncrypt can be setup fully-automatic.
