But GAFAM-led Web browsers throw nasty warnings at new visitors of ours (Techrights), in a site which has not outsourced "trust" to the so-called 'Linux' Foundation (imperialistic Pentagon contractors)
Summary: As shown in the charts above (updated an hour ago), the relative share of 'Linux' Foundation (LE/LF; same thing, same office) in the capsules' certificates has decreased over time; more and more (in terms of proportion) capsules choose to sign their own certificate/s; the concept of 'fake security' (centralisation and consolidation) should be rejected universally because it leaves nobody safe except plutocrats
