Certificate Transparency: The Footprint You Can't Delete (2026)

Описание: https://www.aseohosting.com/blog/2026...

Every certificate a publicly trusted authority issues is submitted to append-only public logs
before your browser will accept it. That means every hostname you have ever certified — including
the staging and development names nobody ever linked to — is published permanently, searchable by
name, and impossible to withdraw.

This is the one hosting footprint signal you cannot take back. You can change an IP, repoint
nameservers, update a registrant record, strip an analytics identifier or rebuild a theme. You
cannot change a certificate log entry, and revoking the certificate does not remove it.
