US Senator Ron Wyden to Pentagon: Encrypt your websites

Please excuse me, but the fact that the largest whatever trust chain out there does not recognize DoD as a trusted root chain is neither here nor there. I'm not expecting anyones's browser to be happy about it, I'm expecting the people who need to access DoD websites to know that they're accessing the right ones.

Your remark tells me that browsers are basically beholden to the largest trust chain, which means that I can't trust who I choose to trust. For Joe User that may be a very good thing and I do not dispute that, but for specific military users, I'm not convinced that that is so useful.
