Considering they state:
"However, it's notable that the connection does not appear to represent an EV-class certificate. In other words, there's no 'green lock' as we see in any of google's other services. For example:'

And then proceed to provide a snapshot of mozilla.org which does
present an EV cert...  Never a shot of a Google site presenting an EV
cert...

They failed at even the most basic level..  The implied that Google
uses EV certs, which AGL (in the other thread) says Google does not..
