While we're at it, let's ban commercial software, and copyright and patent and trademarks.  Computers are able to copy all these things at zero cost; it should be free for everyone.  Unicorns and rainbows for the win!   ;-)

Sorry, I know I'm being a jerk.  But the argument that the *only* provider of commonly trusted free certs is extorting people by charging for revocation is foolishness.  If that argument holds, then *no* certificate authority should be able to charge for issuing certs.
