An announcement from the Google Chrome Security Team has dropped what can only be described as a security and privacy bombshell for the 3.45 billion users of the Chrome browser. From November 1, the world’s most-used web browser will no longer trust digital certificates issued by Entrust, one of the world’s most-used certificate authorities.

While Entrust and AffirmTrust TLS server authentication certificates that were signed on or before October 31 will continue to be valid until their expiration date, effective November 1 Chrome 127 and later, on Android, ChromeOS, Linux, macOS and Windows platforms will cease to be trusted and blocked.
