How to prove? Does Mozilla buy domain names (or purchase certificates)

We rely on good citizens like you to let us know when there's a problem
:-) We don't regularly attempt to break the security of CA cert issuance
procedures, either.
That's a very bad idea if you RELY on that. Instead you should implement
a procedure and plan for random checking various issues. Remember the
bug with Equifax/Geotrust which issues directly from a CA root and how
surprised you were and how surprised I was that you were surprised? ;-)
I can't know what Mozilla knows or doesn't know!
Only CAs are relevant if at all. You don't expect that 200 domain names
were registered by going through anti-spoofing checking and measures, do
you?!
I don't understand what you are saying here. :-(
Outsh, sorry! That should have been 200 *million* domain names were
registered by going through some anti-spoofing checking and measures...
