US-Behörde stoppt Gelder für Let's Encrypt und Tor ‒ Open Tech Fund wehrt sich
Nach einem Dekret von US-Präsident Trump erhält der Open Technology Fund keine Fördermittel mehr. Deswegen zieht die Organisation jetzt vor Gericht.Sven Festag (heise online)
So after listening to your feedback, I agree: let’s spend that money in the EU to create a publicly-owned, free and open ACME-compatible certificate authority.
See post quoted below, with links to Tom’s work as he’s already been thinking/working on this.

We already have multiple European alternatives to @letsencrypt
We have ZeroSSL (Austria) and Buypass Go SSL (Norway).
So no problem here.
#LetsEncrypt
call me weird but the developments of @letsencrypt vs. @cacert shows everything wrong with the way #SSL works.
We would've had a superior alternative to #LetsEncrypt if #GAFAMs weren't able or even allowed to cockblock #CACert by refusing to import it's ROOT-CA, whilst every commercial #CA gets their keys imported, no matter how shit they are or that they are essentially a hostile state actor!
🚨 Let’s Encrypt at risk from Trump cuts to OTF: “Let’s Encrypt received around $800,000 in funding from the OTF”
Dear @EUCommission, get your heads out of your arses and let’s find @letsencrypt €1M/year (a rounding error in EU finances) and have them move to the EU.
If Let’s Encrypt is fucked, the web is fucked, and the Small Web is fucked too. So how about we don’t let that happen, yeah?
(In the meanwhile, if the Let’s Encrypt folks want to make a point about how essential they are, it might be an idea to refuse certificates to republican politicians. See how they like their donation systems breaking in real time…)

Wenn Let’s Encrypt plötzlich nicht mehr klappt, wird das halbe Internet aus Zertifikatsfehlern bestehen. https://www.heise.de/news/Nach-Trump-Dekret-Kampf-um-US-Foerdermittel-fuer-Tor-F-Droid-und-Let-s-Encrypt-10328226.htmlMastodon
@trending_bot Related, longer-term thought, in case it interests you: getting @letsencrypt to work with @opennic would put us on a path to set domain names free from the commercial system (after which we could try to get the EU to force browsers to support OpenNIC natively).

@zbrando@vivaldi.net @morrick@appdot.net @ueeu@vivaldi.net You’re not wrong. But, looking ahead, we can do so much better than the commercial domain name system. Commercial domain names are a gold standard example of artificial scarcity.Aral’s fediverse server
