To look at the history and charter of the EFF and say you don't trust them "in the slightest" is a bit ridiculous. It's hard to take that kind of remark seriously. Look at who's involved and what they've done, and dismiss that under the broad strokes of "no such organization is worthy of trust"? Nonsense.

I don't care who's involved, honestly. The problem is that they're a lobby and they actively push for policy changes. That's a full time job in and of itself -- identity verification is also a full time job, and a requirement of a properly functioning PKI.

What I want involved is an identity verification organization whose mission is clearly defined to be identity verification and management of a PKI trust.

What organization would you consider more trustworthy?

A non-profit, apolitical organization dedicated to identity verification and management of a PKI trust, whose charter includes yearly audits of its systems.
