Ask HN: Should every country have their own national CA certs? We have so many regulations that force companies to store their customers’ data within the country, which makes sense from a perspective of privacy and security. How do you feel about having a national CA certificate in every country? How would someone feel living in authoritarian governments, knowing that the government can easily intercept and read many things? How would a country feel that all the data of its people can be decrypted by another company? (most of the CAs are in the USA) |
