Actually I'm sometimes using machines that I do control in a way, but never 
really setup - usually by means of live cd. On the other hand I'm working in an 
environment where we have people actively doing network security research. I 
think their ethics can be trusted, but still feel a bit uncomfortable every 
time I see a certificate warning.
