The thing that scares me here is that these keys were leaked May 2018, and it's becoming public knowledge now.

Someone found certificates for those three VPN providers and posted them to 8chan with a message like "I don't recommend these VPN providers lol"

The good news is that they're only certificates, and they have now expired, but theoretically they could have been used for the past year without anyone noticing.

During the spate of health care information leakage, someone invented a MTBCA, meaning "Meantime to CEO Apology" for the time between the breach and the CEO apology. At that time, it was running on the order of 8 months.
