List Of A Thousand Well Known Websites That Will Go Down With Chrome 70

According to Scott Helme the below list of about 1000 known websites that are highly ranked at Alexa may go down if they don’t update their website security certificates.

This follows up on Symantec distrust coming to the final showdown on 16th October when the new Google Chrome 70 rolls out. 

I checked through the list to look for any Zambian website and didn’t find one but this doesn’t mean Zambian websites may not be affected. If you have been using any Symantec security certificate issued prior to June 2016 then you are affected.

Additionally, Scott’s list is drawn from only the first 1 million Alexa ranked websites. Most of the Zambian websites are ranked between 1 and 10 million with Alexa.

Hence i have a feeling some of our Zambian government websites maybe break down when the Chrome 70 is introduced. This is because of the reluctance that our institution take to update and patch technology and security matters.
