This is the second major flub this year. Azure's cert expired in prod not many weeks ago.
I made a site that checked for SSL cert expirations and misconfigurations, but I couldn't acquire any customers. I still think there's a business there somewhere, although maybe it really only sells as part of another product. Edit: If anyone wants a script to check their certificates, here you go: https://gist.github.com/bretwalker/5420652 . You'll just need to add in some sort of notification logic, especially for…

Sounds like something you could license to companies to use as a lead generation tool - like HubSpot's Marketing Grader http://marketing.grader.com/
I've since moved on to a new project. If anyone wants to talk about taking over the site, shoot me a message at bretwalker /at/ Google's email. It's Django and has some branding and a domain: http://static.nyquistrate.com.s3.amazonaws.com/media/certcia...

The real question is, why were you on bing? :P
I couldn't find something on google, so I decided to give it a try. Can't hurt. I wanted to find out if anyone has done a study on language confusion(the effect where Russians have a hard time getting good at Polish because they confuse Polish words with Russian ones). Still can't find it ;)

Try googling / binging "L1 interference".
Looks like someone pushed the wrong SSL cert to production: www.bing.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: a248.e.akamai.net , *.akamaihd.net , *.akamaihd-staging.net (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)
Australian Ebay ( https://www.ebay.com.au/ ) has had the same problem for months, although I appear to get no response for https://www.ebay.com , so I'm not sure what their policy is on SSL access to the homepage. I expect that Microsoft will fix Bing much more quickly.

It's not a huge business, but it was almost trivial to setup with all the advanced monitoring & diagnostics that stackify typically does anyway.

To Microsoft : Please fix your IE debacle ( somehow!!).. Its affecting your other products.. Its reputation is becoming infectious.
