Please Report Shady Websites to the Proper Authorities

Public Service Announcement

In this community we often receive alarming reports of shady websites using Let's Encrypt certificates to secure their TLS/SSL connections. This is the electronic equivalent of reporting shady activity occurring in a building to the manufacturer of the locks being used to secure the building. Just as a lock manufacturer is unlikely to aid with removing a lock from a building, we are unlikely to aid with removing a certificate from a website. Please report shady activities to the proper authorities who govern such activities. Thanks.
