You certainly can, if slipshod practices end up _costing_
you money.
Has CAcert stopped writing certificates with no DN yet?
Has CAcert stopped writing essentially unverifiable (or,
if you prefer to think of it that way, forensics-hostile)
CN-only certificates on the basis of a single email exchange

Has CAcert stopped using MD5 in all their signatures yet?
