Apple drops a bomb on long-life HTTPS certificates: Safari to snub new security certs valid for more than 13 months

I entirely agree. All this "enforced security" by browser vendors has done so far is to spawn a massive increase in use of unverifiable cheap self-signed certificates that consequently validate nothing. I strongly suspect that it's primarily another attempt at enforced churn rather than a genuine concern for our security.
