The cacert.org mailing list alerted me to the Open Technology Fund being defunded by the US. As far as I understand, they fund Let's Encrypt. That means back to paying for certs, and thus identifying yourself in the process.

But even with Let's Encrypt, way too much power is granted by the browser cartel, the smart phone mafia and most application vendors to the authority gatekeepers. Is it possible to imagine leveraging WoT in nostr to power reputation for alternative CA certs? pippellia (npub176p…vgup) for example?
