Using an AI generation tool does not train it. Training is completely distinct from inference. In fact that's why those things could never be conscious, they can't actually learn from experience lol.

Is this actually the first time ever that a TLS root is being revoked? Like how is everything bundled everywhere and doesn't handle revocations properly. SSL is 32 years old.
