> ...free SSL certificates. In fact I think they should go ahead and disrupt the SSL industry

StartSSL already offers free SSL certificates - and they haven't disrupted the industry. Even if Google started offering free SSL certificates - it's only a band-aid to the problem not a solution.

Have you tried using StartSSL?? (a) They aren't free if you are doing anything 'commercial' (b) I decided to try and give them my money. I tried very hard. I gave up.

After uploading your documents 30 times, them claiming they didn't get them, you would too.

Oh, and uploading them each time was pretty painful.
