The article makes it sound that the billion affected certificates and the
revocation process is "critical" due to the volume.  :(  Shameful reporting of
the original announcement.

If "renewing" is all that is required, then the revocation announcement seems
to
be overblown indeed.

So, does "renewing" provide you with a different certificate and the processing
automatically revokes the old one in one simple step?

I only posted the news when I remembered that someone in FTN-world mentioned
they were using Let's Encrypt.
