exploiting compromised certificates requires an active adversary-in-the-middle attack, meaning the attacker must act as a proxy between two TLS parties and receive encrypted traffic, decrypt it, reencrypt it, and send it to the other party. Such capabilities, in some cases, are usually limited to only the most well-resourced attackers. People with control of a local network—at a coffee shop, university, or other organization—face much less of a challenge.

I'm too lazy to do the math. Does that translate to the URL?

[–] not@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 13 hours ago

No, it is a string of text. "Never gonna give you up never gonna let you down"
