One of the impacted companies filed a restraining order, because they believe their incompetence is more important than basic functionality of the PKI. Can't wait to hear how they expect to respond if they ever have encounter a cert compromise or actual misissuance, maybe they'll demand 24 hour revocation in that case?

Honestly my opinion is that this should trigger the company being banned by all CAs.

The company in question is Alegeus Technologies LLC: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/68995396/alegeus-techno...

From basic googling it looks like a healthcare provider, so exactly the kind of company you would want to have shitty IT and security infrastructure. A++ work. Absolutely stellar.
