Personally, not sure how I feel about this, I'll continue to remove startcom from FF if it's still included.

That's also my first reaction to startcom. Reading it however it seems they've come a long way since the removal.

I'm not sure if I will again trust this CA again - time will learn if they're still using sneaky practices. But they seem to be doing better now.
