Reducing the valid time will not solve the underlying problems they are trying to fix.

We’re just gonna see more and more mass outages over time especially if this reduces to an uncomfortably short duration. Imagine what might happen if a mass crowdflare/microsoft/amazon/google outage that goes on perhaps a week or two? what if the CAs we use go down longer than the expiration period?

Sure, the current goal is to move everybody over to ACME but now that’s yet another piece of software that has to be monitored, may have flaws or exploits, may not always run as expected… and has dozens of variations with dependencies and libraries that will have various levels of security of their own and potentially more vulnerabilities.

I don’t have the solution, I just don’t see this as fixing anything. What’s the replacement?
