Where all based on SES? :D because that is what I see every freaking day.

ISRG generated two new roots a few days ago. - Root YE - Root RE

Meerfarbig in Frankfurt.

Nikhef in Amsterdam.

Both are good options.

SMIME will become PQC as well as GPG (as of my knowledge).

SMIME will also get an ACME standard for issuing. Including a handful of CAs that will likely issue free Certificates for it.

As of my knowledge: no.

I personally find token2 really nice.

Let’s start my comment new /o\

My guess is that noting will happen for now. It’s mostly a decision that ICANN working groups have to figure out. But given the current size of the .io zone and that we already have a non existing cctld (.su for Soviet Unite), I’m pretty confident it will exist in the mid-term future.

I mean… they don’t need to care that much with 200mio€ profit.

But yes a smother signup, potentially coupled with a prepaid credit (via 3-D Secure) and or eID would be the easiest and safest solution for everyone.

Atleast if it’s clearly stated how and why that is required.

„German Family Business“ is my bet.

They have their own internal security team, that handles activation on a case by case basis. Some users need to verify at the beginning, some after a week and other do not have to verify at all.

As you can imagine, at that price point, people will abuse the sh* out of the platform. From public posts it lookalike the main indicators are: - country you provided - IP based Country - Payment method - Payment method returned country - order size - order pattern (something like spawn a server, abuse stuff, order new OR many servers at the beginning)

Sadly you just need to wait. I wish they would have other solutions. But for now that’s it :-/
