If I don't have the ability to control which CAs I trust, things become useless fast. This is why I fully ditched chomeOS.
Google: wants to push their browser based DRM, to which they would inevitably be the ultimate controller of, in the name of "safety".
Also Google: intentionally kneecaps the existing certificate system which is the main safety system of the web.
Gee, I wonder if the two are connected.
Honestly the entire certificate system is a fraud. You can see just how vulnerable it is with the recent Microsoft vulnerability
I'm ootl on this one - what happened?
Microsoft has been signing stuff that is being used maliciously.
Plus they have has their keys stolen to create malicious stuff...
I was referring to the latter
Never said it wasn't flawed.
But Google itself is flawed. Their search results have been a joke for years now, top results are almost always malware now, no matter what you search for.
