Ajax.aspnetcdn.com Expired TLS Cert

https://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ has an expired certificate. Maybe we can learn something from this. Are folks still struggling with getting their certs renewed? Monitoring them? How do you /your team / company avoid this?

The ASPNETCDN site examples all have a fallback so nothing should have broken if you followed their examples. It's interesting they did this given others do not.

such as

Production applications should not take a hard dependency on CDN assets. Applications should test for the CDN asset referenced, and use a fallback asset when the CDN is not available.

  // Fallback to loading jQuery from a local path if the CDN is unavailable
  (window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="/scripts/jquery-1.9.0.min.js"><\/script>'));

    I came across this on one of the MS properties, so they obviously did not follow their own advice.

    See, this sounds like it would be easy enough to understand/foresee

    You know who doesn't seem to understand it, and who conveniently also runs aspnetcdn?

    Microsoft, because their partner portal completely bugged out because of this and is unusable without adding a security exception
