Their free client certificates are no different from Thawte's.
True name, with the number of the beast branded upon it.  The
giveaway is that they want to get their CA preloaded into
outlook express and IE. To get that, one must first worship the
beast.

Establishing true names, however, is too much like hard work,
which is why very few people have been prepared to do it.
