Google, Apple and Mozilla have blocked Kazakhstan’s government-issued root CA certificate in their browsers. Starting today, Chrome, Safari and Firefox users in Kazakhstan will see an error message stating that the certificate should not be trusted when attempting to access a website that responds with the government’s certificate. The Kazakh government recently installed a root certificate allowing ISPs to intercept, monitor, and decrypt users’ encrypted HTTPS and TLS connections, helping the government spy on its 18 million people and censor content. The certificate allowed the Kazakh government to decrypt and read anything a user visiting popular sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, among others.
