If certificate renewal is automatic why do it at all ...
1 comments

To ensure that those who possess the certificate, still control the domain.

The main issue is that certificates should really be automated by every web server by default. At least for those with public IP addresses. There are servers like Caddy which implemented it, but it should be basic feature that just works without any additional configuration.
