Mozilla at least used to routinely get advanced notice of things like
coordinated-embargo security issues, including those that affected
publicly-traded entities, and managed to keep them appropriately private.
Mozilla could be notified without it being via the MDSP channel, and in
fact I believe that's exactly what happened with the Symantec events. I
don't believe that it happened in this case, presumably because neither
Entrust nor Sectigo believed that there was a material change to the
relevant root operations of either, but rather simply a bulk migration of
customers. (I agree with that position, for what little that's worth.)
