Die apple. All your innovation and vision died with Steve Jobs, now you're a shambling corpse infecting everything you touch. Just die, it's time...

Yep crApple is the one pushing for the shorter SSL certificate length too. Their just adding headaches to everyone's lives for no good reason.

Shorter SSL certificate length means more security

Even Mozilla's pushing it

Do you have a link to an explanation of this? I am curious to learn more

Yeah and having a 512 character password is more secure than 52.

This isn't some big exploit vector they're fixing, they're trying to make it more annoying to automate a IoT stack without the cloud.

I'm going on what I heard from Security Now but it is my understanding that apple was the only one pushing for this and the others just voted to approve even though apple was never able to present a convincing argument for why it needed to be shortened.
