Well-Known Certificate Authorities
----------------------------------

In these examples we've prearranged which root certificates to trust. But for regular HTTPS on the
Internet this set of trusted root certificates is usually provided by default by the host platform.
Such a set typically includes many root certificates from well-known certificate authorities like
Entrust and Verisign.

### Certificate Pinning ([.kt][CertificatePinningKotlin], [.java][CertificatePinningJava])

/**
 * Constrains which certificates are trusted. Pinning certificates defends against attacks on
 * certificate authorities. It also prevents connections through man-in-the-middle certificate
 * authorities either known or unknown to the application's user.
 * This class currently pins a certificate's Subject Public Key Info as described on

 * Browsers and other HTTP clients need a set of trusted root certificates to authenticate their
