I'll start by saying I asked this in March so it's been a while since I was
playing with all this. Guess the mail got stuck somewhere.

What I was trying to do was just see how easy it was to decrypt traffic if
the certificate could be aquired. This was before Heartbleed but going back
to it now I'm sure there are plenty of certificates lying around now. I
know they can be used to set up fake sites but being able to decrypt as
well is just a useful extra skill.
