My vote is for trusting Let's Encrypt, because SSL protects my users (and myself, and each other) from MITM attacks! However, it is interesting to ask what "trust" means in this context, since I don't know the people behind Let's Encrypt, so I don't trust them in that way. What are we trusting the organizations associated with those certs to do, or not to do?
