Re: Trust?

that trust is regularly abused...what makes you think that the trust endpoint won't receive a secret order that forces it to harvest data?

Cisco's firmware&hardware has been regularly backdoored while in transit, the Lavabit debacle, the current Microsoft-overseas-data jurisdiction issue and the recently revealed gag&spy company-wide email interception at Yahoo! proved beyond all doubts that such a whitelist/endpoint can and WILL be abused by Uncle Sam.

Comodo is no different in this aspect than Cisco, Yahoo, Microsoft or Lavabit ... they all are (or were) US-registered companies and at the mercy of the secret gag&spy orders..
