I'm not really sure I understand this response at all. I'm hoping you can clarify.

Presumably, a CA stating they're going to violate the BR requirements, knowing the risk to trust that it may pose, would have done everything possible to gather every piece of information so that they could assess the risk of violation is outweighed by whatever other risks (in this case, revocation). If that's the case, is it unreasonable to ask how the CA determined that - which is the root cause analysis question? And how to mitigate whatever other risk (in this case, revocation) poses going forward, so that violating the BRs isn't consistently seen as the "best" option? _______________________________________________ dev-security-policy mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security-policy
