> How does signing with a 3rd-party provide more security? – James Mills Jul 11, 2014 at 3:14

holy shit @prologic
@novaburst Hmmm? Where'd you find that piece? What's the context? πŸ€”

@prologic something about self-signed tls certificates on heckoverflow (stack)
@novaburst Oh gawd yeah well I stand by that statement! Trust is hardβ„’ πŸ˜… Having a 3rd party sign your TLS certificates requires you and everyone that uses your certificate to _trust_ that 3rd-party to some degree right? πŸ˜…

@novaburst @prologic

hsm(s) can be expensive. so in many ways you have to weigh your trust model.

unless you have 80k under your floor and care to become a ca?
@mutefall being your own CA for free is fairly easy though (seriously no sane person cares about the browsers)

@novaburst i don't disagree. however i've a few people in my life that do care about what their browser says.

can't win them all.
