It's not obvious whether Google can afford to drop LetsEncrypt, the single most widely used CA, used on approx 2/3 of all websites, over a unilateral policy decision by Google. It would amount to Google blocking 2/3 of the web in Chrome. Users would be forced to roll back the version or switch to different browsers.
However, it's obvious that Let's Encrypt isn't interested in taking that risk.
Google is one of the top sponsors for Let's Encrypt. Lot of money. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin bill@herrin.us https://bill.herrin.us/
