Google warns 2 billion users of update that could break websites worldwide

▤ Summary

Google has issued a warning to Chrome’s more than two billion users amid fears the browser’s forthcoming update will break a number of websites around the world. The tech giant announced the news via its Chromium Bug tracker, the codebase for Chrome, and a solution to the issue is currently nowhere in sight. Users of Chrome should brace themselves for disruption or find another browser to use until the issue is resolved, a Forbes report said. Chrome has been under sustained scrutiny for the last 12 months, amid data leaks, privacy concerns, and other issues. Just this week, billions of Chrome users were urged to update certain settings to stop Google from tracking their every move.
