CA:WoSign Issues
Hopefully one day we will replace CAs with something decentralized(i.e based on DNSSEC). CAs make sense only if you need an EV certificate.

DNSSEC is
not
decentralized -- it follows a
strict
hierarchy from ICANN => TLDs (world governments) => you.
DNS is
distributed
, not decentralized.

Right... but at least you cut off the CA from the scheme. You depend on ICANN -> TLD anyway.
