Comment on Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days
JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 week agoCan you not issue your own certificate? I guess it depends on how many devices and what types of devices need to connect. It’s be a one time effort per device (importing your own self signed cert) versus one time effort per service per X days.

I did that for myself a few years back. But i can’t convince my roommates, let’s not even speak of guests, to install a (my) root certificate. My android phone still complains about “possibly supervised network traffic” since back when i installed my root ca. Maybe there is another solution im not aware of, but i can’t think of any

It’s so infuriating to me that there isn’t a way to just encrypt traffic without verifying it’s part of a chain. By all means, give a nag warning in browsers, but ugh, I think that ship has long since sailed. Plus, realistically, you’d need just as many scary warnings to deter the average user that they might be getting MITMed.
