Open source, in search of a viable business model.

Classic, since days of MIT license lore.

Looks like universities and research labs (corporate, private, and government, wait, scratch that last one a bit) will be picking up the tiny slacks, ... again.



It seems more like "privacy, in search of a viable business model" (or possibly "security").

If Let's Encrypt starts charging for a certificate, how many web sites will switch to http-only?


Yeah.

While not privacy-related, that http-only would break my own model of banning all things Chrome via a certain combo of TLSv3.1 crypto, regardless of UserAgent string.
