  1. This is quite an eye opener. I just browsed the list of trusted root certificates on my Windows machine which includes some that obviously did not come with Windows and yet they are there. Apparently any installer can drop whatever certificate in there without me being asked whether I trust this party. This makes the PKI infrastructure quite pointless. I would expect my OS to ask me if I'm OK with a particular certificate when an installer tries to add a root certificate.
