I think atlas allows tls/ssl probes, so that could still be used to track unexpected changes in certificates?

> And this is all sort of beside the fact that Microsoft's incomplete implementation lead to Twonky and Plex as competitors, both of which had their own problems and sort of muddied the waters on the whole thing. The HP Home Servers shipped with WMC, Plex, and Twonky all running by default! You can imagine how confusing that could be to deal with.

I haven't looked into twonky and plex, but are they even trying to solve the same problem that DLNA aimed to do? My understanding is that neither of those have submitted anything to standardizing bodies like IETF or ISO so far, but maybe there is no need for such as the content is being streamed directly from the internet.

> The issue with UPNP is not that it's misunderstood. The issue is that somebody implementing it has to pay hundreds of bucks to read the ISO.

I think you can get the specs here: https://openconnectivity.org/developer/specifications/upnp-r...

> On the other hand printers are working on your smartphones but not on your Linux desktop.

I don't think this has anything to do with upnp? Most printers nowadays also support IPP (thanks to apple's cups push?), so ..
