"Prevents hijacking for real" wording is a bit strong
dot-bit/index.md states:
So-called experts claim that HTTPS (the "secure" website protocol) prevents this kind of hijacking, but it doesn't. Dot-Bit prevents hijacking for real.
It would be nice to make this a bit more clear that compromised CA's are not the only form of website impersonation that exists, and that Namecoin's TLS support only helps against compromised CA's. (Also, as long as Namecoin doesn't properly prevent homograph attacks, Namecoin is actually worse than the DNS on some types of website impersonation attacks.)
