They were under attack. I actually read the whole thread and they were crystal clear.

Yeah I personally feel for the rep, they were indeed under attack. But there is no going around it, a company that advertised a product as being e2e encrypted when it really was not, having multiple levels of ties with the CA was enough to deem the CA as unfit.

I agree with this conclusion because the CA ecosystem is a fragile one if not governed strictly, since the risks are of the highest concern to the general use of the Internet.
