Since Firefox is an open source product, for items like these, removing CN support likely will require a volunteer that actually goes forward to provide a patch to implement the removal, and such patch likely will only get merged if retaining any CN support is preventing some other major improvements to Firefox or the web/PKI infrastructure as a whole. Firefox already thereįirefox already no longer recognize CN for new certificates signed by public PKIs, (deadline was anything issued on/after ) but still allow fallback to CN for non-built in CAs. Those are handy, but it’s always nice when there is a native tool available too.IE is a dead product, it'll probably stay doing what it's currently doing unless there's some major security issue forcing Microsoft to issue a special security update to disable CN validation. Web Capture is currently in preview through the Canary and Dev channels.īack on Chrome, there are plenty of third-party extensions that allow users to take complete page screenshots. Microsoft says more dynamic features like capturing complete webpages, scroll and mark, adding links, and highlights will come in a future update. In other words, you can take a screenshot and that’s it. Web Capture on Microsoft Edge only provides a basic level of screenshots during its testing.

Microsoft Edge already has a similar feature called Web Capture, which is currently in public preview. Now, the company says the Chrome Share Long Screenshots provides “UI to edit and share long screenshots on Android.”

It’s worth noting Google previously tested a similar feature but canned it after negative feedback. That said, there are no guarantees the tool will make it beyond development. This means also capturing the page that is not visible to users because of screen size limitations.īecause it is a Chrome tool and not an Android one, it is more than likely the feature would one day extend to the browser on other platforms. Google is currently working on a flag that would allow Chrome on Android 11 to take a screenshot of the whole webpage. Importantly, this new tool may also one day extend to the Chrome browser, allowing it to match Microsoft Edge in terms of screenshot capabilities. Google is hoping to change that with scrolling screenshots on Android 11 However, only being able to capture a small screen is not ideal. The platform allows a basic screenshot function, and most OEMs add some feature around the native ability. Screenshots on Android have typically been a mixed bag.
