  1. FF Extension to validate Self-sign/Expired Certs on Firefox SSL-Certificate Debate Rages On · · Score: 1

    People might be interested in a Firefox Extension we have created at Carnegie Mellon: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~perspectives/ Perspectives uses network probing from a set of semi-trusted "network notaries" to allow the browser to determine if a self-signed/expired/mismatched is valid. If so, it can automatically override the annoying FF warning pages. We welcome all feedback!
