Verisad (sic) are just a disaster.  i have always tried
avoiding them (as much as possible) and doing things
myself (if possible).  they have a tiresome habit of
breaking stuff.

i saw some other DNS weirdness as of yesterday.  it may
not be DNS related (i have side info), but it is very strange.

iirc they are a root CA -- what a foul quasi-monopoly.
