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 ! https://github.com/tdelmas/Let-s-Clone
@tdelmas this is something I’d very much like to get behind to make happen, if you were organising towards it
The first step would be to create a non-profit structure.
Then set up the infrastructure.
Once the structure and the infrastructure is strong, then comes the "getting accepted into certificate stores", which is a multi-year-long process, that needs to be bootstrapped by a cross-signature from an already accepted CA. Maybe @letsencrypt could help for that (or a commercial CA for a fee).
@EC_DIGIT Could you tell us if is anyone working on a #europeanalternative to #LetsEncrypt ? We're all concerned about depending on a US-domiciled service (and certificate authority) as part of our personal and collective security architectures.
If nobody is, we're interested and could use some guidance and sponsorship, especially with introductions to European CAs and other stakeholders. Thanks!
