eMudhra missed Mozilla root certificate investigation deadline

Original: eMudhra ignored Mozilla Root investigation deadline; blames social media

Indian certificate authority eMudhra failed to respond by Mozilla's deadline during an investigation into its root certificate practices, according to a Mozilla bug tracker entry. The company reportedly blamed social media pressure for the situation. Observers are discussing what the missed deadline means for eMudhra's certificates being trusted in browsers, since Mozilla controls which root certificates are included in Firefox and related software.

Why now: A trusted certificate authority ignoring a Mozilla deadline raises concerns about web security and potential removal of trust.
