How many websites do you actually use don't have a domain name?

also, as above, there is no one root CA. you can add and remove any ca from your system. most users don't because why would you trust a random ca from some random site.

What's the actual problem here?

That i do not want some third party's permission to make my site and desktop applications available to everyone.

Note the one you asked, but i have the same issues with the certificate mafia.
