> TLS is everywhere now.

TLS is a racket. The protocol is important, it's required, sure.

The companies who issue the certificates however have been printing money ever since SSL came to exist. Each certificate issued is a money note.

LetsEncrypt only exists now and only because the internet is an heap of security mess. And caused by the same SSL certificate companies.

Domains are too.

Let'sEncrypt has been providing service for nearly 10 years now
