(Google): More screwed up Symantec digital certificates -- piles of them
https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2015/10/sustaining-digital-certificate-security.html
Symantec performed another audit and, on October 12th,
announced that they had found an additional 164 certificates
over 76 domains and 2,458 certificates issued for domains that
were never registered. It's obviously concerning that a CA
would have such a long-running issue and that they would be
unable to assess its scope after being alerted to it and
conducting an audit.

Executive Summary: Symantec needs to hire some competent adults.
