Let’s Encrypt in the spotlight

I don't like the idea of a monopoly either.

But the issue here is what is "reputable". Most of (all?) the major commercial suppliers that I am aware of have been involved in major incidents.

The only reputable supplier I could name, is LE.

I agree, but you could say that any of major issuers was reputable 2, 5, ... years into issuing certificates. Being new doesn't mean you're better long term.

But I personally like the fact there's much less commercial pressure on LE - for the time being at least.
