Note the Ziggo Wifispots certificate will often not install on Android the default way

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/01/26

A long time ago, I wrote about Wifispots instellen | Klantenservice | Ziggo « The Wiert Corner – irregular stream of stuff.

For that, you need a Ziggo VPN certificate, which you can download from [Wayback] www.ziggo.nl/content/dam/www.ziggo.nl/tools/WifiSpots certificaten/WifiSpots certificaat Android en Windows Ziggo.crt .

On many Android phones, that does not install the default way any more as back then.

The reason is that it is a CA root certificate (in this case identifying Ziggo as certificate authority) thereby allowing them to issue any certificate. This can be a serious risk, so you have to be really sure to trust them before installing the certificate.

Hopefully the stream capture will become available on YouTube: Insanely Great – CHM – The Apple Mac at 40

The drawback of evening live USA broadcasts is that most of Europe and Africa are asleep.

The Americas, Asia and Australia are awake, so I get it that [Wayback/Archive] Insanely Great – CHM – The Apple Mac at 40 was streamed live at 04:00 UTC at [Wayback/Archive] Computer History Museum – YouTube: live.

Hopefully the capture will be available soon.

Not holding my breath though as not response whatsoever from the moderator when I asked for it.

Via [Wayback/Archive] David Pogue on X: “40 years ago today, Steve Jobs unveiled the Macintosh. Tonight, I’m hosting an astonishing event that reunites many of its creators: Bill Atkinson, Andy Hertzfeld, Susan Kare, Steve Capps, Bruce Horn, Guy Kawasaki, many more. Free livestream at 7 pm PT:”.
