Well, Eddy, I'm sorry that you feel things that you don't understand are stupid.
I understand you very well and you know that I understand and I know that you understand. Just stop that game, would you?! You know exactly what I meant and I know exactly what you meant.
Just to clarify: all business models include some form of give-away, for free, no cost!
Yes really? What do you give me if I show you one (which is not included in ALL) business model which doesn't include free-bees?
The notion that CAs give away S/MIME certificates for free - no cost! - is proof that CAs may be engaged in business, and may have a business model.
I believe that it might be the other way around for many CAs, that there is no money to be made. But anyway, most CAs wouldn't care and bother a minute longer with S/MIME...
Oppose! You know OpenPGP is bad for you :)
It doesn't have the features most organizations require. The trust anchor is one of them. Do you really think it would bother me if it's called PGP or X509 what CAs sign?
