Also the next day StartCom started using Certificate Transparency on all their certs:

As this is apparently better than Google, and I suspect other CAs haven’t even done this yet, I doubt they will be ‘banned’.
BTW I’m no apologist for StartSSL - there was a real issue with them charging for Heartbleed re-issuing of certs which I thought was really crappy (but that issue is over now, as it’s well over a year so all certs will have expired). Hence why I wanted to switch ALL my sites to LE .And to some extent you get what you pay for…but it’s not fair to claim they are somehow ‘insecure’.
