Clean up the attempted humour please
What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

I am very sorry to say that Actalis (the last of the gratis email S/MIME-certificate providers!) should not even be in the list, as it generates the key pair itself! That includes the private key! A lousy example of "what not to do" security-wise.
mozillaZine's article should, at the very least, put a notice warning novice users of the highly improper behavior of Actalis. Otherwise, it is as if it, somehow, endorses the situation.

I see the knowledge base thread is currently locked so I thought I would try here.

If you want to make the update for me then the only one still giving out 1 year certs is Actalis.

Hi,
Sorry to say, but we cannot edit the KB anymore.
It's been reduced to an Archive/Read Only site.
