Looking at that timeline, I can see why other CA forum members are asking "are you really taking this seriously?" The whole point is that such a restraining order was definitely a bad call by the judge and should absolutely have been contested immediately by any legal team that was interested in representing the security interests of the CA Browser Forum (which, ya know, members of the CA Browser Forum should do in such cases, hence why they're in the CA Browser forum). The fact that DigiCerts legal team did show up for that TRO and then did not act to try to defend their ability to secure their certs, is a bad thing. If you want to be a CA, you gotta be willing to defend your need to act in the name of security, and to defend that in a social, business, and legal context. The point of CAs in the world is not to make money, it is to provide security services. Responding with "hey, but my legal obligations in my country mean I can't always do that" is a valid explanation, but it also means that the rest of the CA Browser Forum should probably not trust you.
