Hi,
When setting up the XMPP client Jitsi, I get a message that the
certificate is not trusted.
I generated the TLS certificate using Let's Encrrypt within Plinth.
When I view the certificate, I see the organization it is issued to and
by is "Internet Widgits Pty Ltd." When I look up who "Internet Widgits
Pty Ltd" is, I find, e.g.,
https://web.archive.org/web/20160513100430/http://www.herdprotect.com/signer-internet-widgits-pty-ltd-009dd8bc177abb2f73.aspx.
"Internet Widgits Pty Ltd is a software publisher located in Some-State,
Australia*. The publisher primarily developes software that can be
classified as adware. Thre are 18 additional code signing certificates
issued to this publisher."
I have not accepted the certificate. Is it unsafe?
Best,
DJ
