Superscript:

Lowercase: ᵃᵇᶜᵈᵉᶠᵍʰⁱʲᵏˡᵐⁿᵒᵖʳˢᵗᵘᵛʷˣʸᶻ

Uppercase: ᴬᴮᴰᴱᴳᴴᴵᴶᴷᴸᴹᴺᴼᴾᴿᵀᵁⱽᵂ

no lower q, and no upper C,F,Q,S,X,Y or Z. And depending on the font, it might be worse.

"This change is being made along with the rest of the industry, as required by the CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements, which set the technical requirements that we must follow."

I dont follow. Why? Why not an hour? A ssl failure is a very effective way to shut down a site.

"you should verify that your automation is compatible with certificates that have shorter validity periods.

To ensure your ACME client renews on time, we recommend using ACME Renewal Information (ARI). ARI is a feature we’ve introduced to help clients know when they need to renew their certificates. Consult your ACME client’s documentation on how to enable ARI, as it differs from client to client. If you are a client developer, check out this integration guide."

Oh that sounds wonderful. So every small site that took the LE bait needs expensive help to stay online.

Do they track and publish the sites they take down?

I just got bit by device attestation. Tried to install the latest ebay app version via the Aurora Store (on GrapheneOS), and instead of presenting me with the option of using my ebay login, it wanted a google account at a play store login with no way to bypass. I was able to downgrade to the previous version which does not require the Integrity API, but the walls are closing in. Only took 7 months: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41517159 (I did get ebay on the phone and filed an issue, hopefully others do the same)

No google acct here, I use fdroid and the Aurora store. I have no doubt though that google is working on killing the Aurora store.

Fantastic interviewers. It's pretty rare to get such a technical conversation at a high level (as opposed to a purely technical talk) where the interviewers constantly flesh out exactly what the interviewee is saying until they feel that they understand the conversation.

No worries though, Germany is raiding peoples houses for offending people online. Please spare me the "only for Holocaust deniers" thing.
