Let's Encrypt to Offer Free TLS Certificates

[silicon_toad2000]

The Let's Encrypt project will allow just about any website to use free Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates to protect site visitors.
The program is scheduled to launch on September 7, 2015, when it will issue "a small number of [certificates] to white-listed domains." Wider availability is expected by November 16, 2015.
