Trustwave vs Mozilla community for MITM Digital Certificate

Digital Certificate Authority (CA) Trustwave revealed that it has issued a digital certificate that enabled an unnamed private company to spy on SSL protected connections within its corporate network. The certificate issued by Trustwave is recognized as a subordinate root and enabled to sign digital certificates for virtually any domain on the Internet. Mozilla community has immediately requested to remove the CAs root certificate from Firefox and Thunderbird domain. Trustwave declared that the issuing of subordinate roots to private companies has been done with the purpose to allow inspection of the SSL-encrypted traffic that passes through their networks.”]
