I'm surprised so much ppl here ignored the warnings and kept connecting using a bad cert. This is so insecure.

To quote from the article: http://www.cnet.com/news/web-users-igno ... -warnings/
(Emphasis added.)In an online study conducted among 409 participants, the researchers found that the majority of respondents would ignore warnings about an expired Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate. The more tech-savvy the user, the more likely they would be to ignore it, the study found.

Re: Certificate Domain stuff?
What the hell. I'm tech-savvy myself and I would never connect to anything using a bad cert. I sometimes even manually compare fingerprints to ensure that no MITM is in use.
