They did, but only because he was honest. He is pointing out that it may not be difficult, due to the lack of checking, for a dishonest person to use fake information. I do think that's an issue of concern. I would say that the EV Guidelines allow EV issuers to trust things which are QGISes because there's an assumption that information in a Government information source will have had some level of checking. But it seems from this experience that this is not true in all cases. That concerns me. Do we have to agree that Companies House is not a valid QGIS? This is not a phishing issue, it's a more general "integrity of the EV process" issue.
