A long, long, time ago, in a thread, far, far, away,

I recall discussions about using CAcert

http://www.cacert.org/

but I can't recall if they require an ICANN FQDN.

has anyone tried recently?

It's definitely a step forward, but there are a couple of issues that, imo, mean we shouldn't promote it as an alternative to just changing your DNS settings:

* The resolvers are run by an unknown party and we have no idea whether they are trustworthy — at least with OpenNIC T2s there is some level of accountability
* HTTPS doesn't work. Even TOFU TLS is better than nothing, and we're moving towards a real CA, so this is important.

Maybe we could solve these issues, but I think new/fixed windows/Mac apps would be a better idea still.
