Don't ask - some b*** s*** coding - those certificates are used only in
case of the very specific network provider - that the one who implemented
it thought it would be wise to stick it in / show it unconditionally, even
though you are NOT using that specific network provider, thus user
certificate is NOT of any value for you, and you end up being confused,
bothering yourself, and then some more people :)

Cheers,
