I wonder
If an outfit like Google would file for a restraining order against outfits impersonating its certificates.
The results might be interesting, given the way certificates are touted as identification by all and sundry including govt.
on the one hand, they might be declared not to be, in which case the whole industry implodes.
on the other, if they are, then (im)personation is generally regarded as a serious criminal matter.
