there are even 'Free' SSL certs available although I don't recommend them.
What's wrong with LetsEncrypt?

I'm a computer engineer by trade and am more than happy to help. Please feel free to send Kevin my way. It's a very quick and easy fix.
Krelvin's a sysadmin. He needs no help, though he may not be well.

What that article says, basically is "LetsEncrypt is bad because people are stupid".

Lots of things are bad because people are stupid.

"This is terrifying and we should be concerned about this. What most people don't realize is that a secure connection to an untrustworthy website doesn't mean it's safe to use."

Hyperbole, much?

I understand the risks, take me there anyway
