🚨 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…)

@aral Or let's use the protocol they created - ACME - to create more independent CA, EU-based ! github.com/tdelmas/Let-s-Clone

@tdelmas @aral are you not aware of the other ACME-capable CAs? Two of the fives CAs listed here are based in Europe. And I don't know if it's an exhaustive list.
