What are you saying...I am passing this comment on.<br /><i><br />What are you saying, that whitehouse.gov is putting a certificate on your computer to ensure the identity of YOUR computer?<br /><br />Uh,uh. No. All a certificate does is ensure the identity of the SERVER computer. In this case, it guarantees that when you are connecting to whitehouse.gov, it really is "whitehouse.gov", and not some man-in-the-middle ... Read Moretype of redirection. Certificates are often used when setting up secure (https) connections, and they are generally safe. Basically, they're a "magic word" that only the intended server should know, so that you can be sure that you're really connecting to the right server.</i><br /><br />Of course if there was a trust in our government blog post like this would not be appearing.Greg Gosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05618441283107952475noreply@blogger.com
