What happened
Collection of Google Security Blog announcements (late 2025–early 2026) covering: Chrome’s approach to quantum-safe HTTPS (no immediate addition of post‑quantum X.509 roots; development of Merkle Tree Certificates via IETF PLANTS to reduce CT/TLS scaling concerns); phased deprecation of 11 legacy Domain Control Validation (DCV) methods led by Chrome/CA‑Browser Forum (full effect by March 2028); Android ecosystem security improvements including expanded scam protection, Google Play AI‑driven app vetting (1.75M blocked apps, 80k developer bans in 2025), and new theft‑protection features (failed‑
