The first report I looked at was Entrust refusing to revoke certs because their clients' manual processes would make applying reissued certificates inconvenient.

Quite fun reading, surprisingly - a mid thread revelation that they'd pulled the exact same shit 4 years ago, an attempt by Entrust to kill the issue because unattributed legal advice said they'd misreported the error. And then, just when their chutzpah seemed to be wearing everyone down, a good 'fuck you' from Apple forced them to revoke the certs after all.

I'm not surprised Google had enough & yanked their license to print money.

Seriously. Surely making certificates is one of the absolute apexes of the ratio of how much money you can make versus how much actual work you have to do; in what world did they manage to be sufficiently massive cockheads as to screw that ticket up?
