Neat. I had never heard of TLSA.

I’ll also add that certificate transparency (CT) is another mechanism designed to mitigate malicious cert issuance by a CA. A CT log is an public, append-only data structure. It doesn’t actively prevent anything, but it does ensure that a malicious issuance is easily detectable. In practice it seems to be a pretty effective deterrent against nation-state attacks: they won’t go undetected for long.
