nnrocks··on SSL Security Issues and Vulnerabilities
Valid point.
nnrocks··on Ask HN: How can I learn about SSL/TLS through code?
You better follow popular SSL blogs to learn about SSL/TLS.
nnrocks··on Ask HN: How do you renew your SSL certificates?
Both, SSL buying and renewal process are same. So you have to follow the basic steps that you already know to enable SSL certificate on your website. Let's Encrypt has auto renewal process for domain validated certs but if you are looking for anything else like OV or EV, then you will have to go for other paid provider.
nnrocks··on Do we have free SSL certificate which won't expire in 3 months?
According to CAB forum guidelines, Certificate authority cannot issue DV certificate more than 39 months validity and EV certificate for more than 27 months validity.

https://cabforum.org/faq-about-the-baseline-requirements/ https://cabforum.org/wp-content/uploads/EV-SSL-Certificate-G...

So you can get DV/BV certificate for maximum for 3 years and EV certificate with maximum 2 year validity because most CAs prefer to issue certificate on yearly base.

nnrocks··on Ask HN: Ordinary user focus groups re: perception of regular SSL cert vs. EV SSL
I appreciate your thoughts, it is really logical that website accepting payments online and want to secure their website with best GUI of Green Address Bar; should have to represent few documents. Unfortunately you won’t be able to find exact data you are looking for, you should have to look for various survey conducted on EV SSL and also on Standard SSL.

I would like to give you links for few surveys.

nnrocks··on CNNIC's response to Google
Very true said. Gaining security is always in favor of public and organizations. Google is a authority, and many people take its statement seriously rather than others. And this approach may really take internet to safe side at some point. Nowadays ssl can be found at no price. Letsencrypt is going to provide at free of cost and vendors (like ssl.com and cheapsslshop.com ) selling such certs from nominal fee of $4 - $5 per year. Infact Government organization should shake hand with Google and motivate people to adopt such security asap.
