    We are moving to shorter certificate lifetimes because this reduces the risk of key compromise and mis-issuance. As a nonprofit we see it as part of our mission to make this change to advance security for everyone using the Web globally.

    I'm already annoyed by how much downtime certificates already cause. Can't wait for the problem to be even worse. \s
