Chinese instances are due to many chinese networks doing MiTM so instead of flooding the user with errors, they just disable certificate verification altogether.
@cybertailor @mike sure, but that search also does not find all the relevant occurrences because of other ways to write the code and other languages, so it simultaneously is also much higher
I imagined the number to be much smaller in code tbh. Some portion might be related to one of the reasons people turn it off on cli too maybe? If you google most cert error messages many stackoverflow top answers are "use this flag that i didn't explain what it does but it will make it work"
Well, maybe it is time to deprecate and remove the option. Learning by pain for a better world. At least it will be funny to see how half the internet breaks and all the IT people running around, waving hands and swearing. 😂

in reply to daniel:// stenberg:// • • •This is maybe my favourite, where a curl wrapper explains how to turn peer verification off under the heading "SSL verification setup":
github.com/php-mod/curl#:~:tex…
GitHub - php-mod/curl: This library provides an object-oriented and dependency free wrapper of the PHP cURL extension.
