SSL certificates are a form of blackmail. You pay in order to get somebody to issue an opinion that your encryption is good. That does not mean your encryption is not good if you don't pay to get the certificate.
This reminds me of that certification crap during installation where VeriSign wanted you to shell out something like $3000 (at least in the early days) so that your app could be "certified." Bullpoop. Users are so trained nowadays to just "Next Next Next Install" because most refused to pay that ransom on installation.
