I haven't read that of LetsEncrypt, but that's pay-to-play, right? I can't give a more concrete example than Sections 10 and 11 of the CloudFlare TOS (even ignoring its contradictions and horrific spelling), and I assure you that's a legitimate concern for the small businessman. "Free" service isn't the sort of carrot that will make me disregard the TOS stick it dangles from, when experience informs me that stick is nowhere near as tasty as the proferred carrot. -Eric
