Thanks to TLS SNI (server name indication), a dedicated IP address is
no longer necessarily,
RFC 3546, 3.1.
Yes, it is realistic to expect every mom-and-pop posting a personal
web site to utilize a provider that implements SNI, and the sooner
they do it.
It's also realistic to expect them to buy one of those $15 SSL certificates.
Heck.... 1 year .COM registration used to cost a lot more than that.
We're not talking about huge recurring costs here.
