And I suspect it is related to this:

   I previously wrote "You're probably right".  He was.
As of the January 2014 U. Mich scan of IPv4 space:

Number of IPv4 sites offering an SSL cert:      66335624
Number with two different second-level domains:   154958
Number associated with cloudflare.com:             45405
Number associated with yellhosting.com:             1465

Those two services, "cloudflare.com" and "yellhosting.com",
seem to be the primary bulk users of multiple-domain certs.
(Akamai wasn't doing this.)   Most other multiple-domain
certs have reasonable-looking combinations of domain names.

So that's what the data tells us. It's only Cloudflare, and
to a lesser extent Yell Hosting, who are doing this in
a big way.

More later.
