I don't know where "you hate PKI" comes from. Certainly I dislike X.509! It's a terrible protocol/format, and I doubt even its own designers would repeat the mistake. But I use the WebPKI, and have spent most of my time on HN talking about it defending it.

I'm pretty comfortable with who does and doesn't take me seriously, for what it's worth. You don't have to if you don't want to.

Okay you hate X509. Should we just ditch https then?

It's as if you stopped reading 1/3 of the way into the comment you're replying to.
