SSL Certificate Authorities



Opinions wanted:

I did some research on VeriSign and, in my personal opinion, they're a bunch of creeps (again, that's my personal opinion). I wanted to know: why even bother with these kinds of "verification" services when you/me/whoever could easily get this same information verified through a local notary public service? What's the difference? Apologies if this question isn't Debian related, but, I started thinking about this again while reading the Linux Bible. ~Telly
