Deprecations and removals in Chrome 84
@import rules in CSSStyleSheet.replace() removed
The original spec for constructable stylesheets allowed for calls to:
sheet.replace("@import('some.css');")
This use case is being removed. Calls to replace()
now throw an exception if
@import
rules are found in the replaced content.

Remove TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1
TLS (Transport Layer Security) is the protocol which secures HTTPS. It has a long history stretching back to the nearly twenty-year-old TLS 1.0 and its even older predecessor, SSL. Both TLS 1.0 and 1.1 have a number of weaknesses.
- TLS 1.0 and 1.1 use MD5 and SHA-1, both weak hashes, in the transcript hash for the Finished message.
- TLS 1.0 and 1.1 use MD5 and SHA-1 in the server signature. (Note: this is not the signature in the certificate.)
- TLS 1.0 and 1.1 only support RC4 and CBC ciphers. RC4 is broken and has since been removed. TLS’s CBC mode construction is flawed and is vulnerable to attacks.
- TLS 1.0’s CBC ciphers additionally construct their initialization vectors incorrectly.
- TLS 1.0 is no longer PCI-DSS compliant.
Supporting TLS 1.2 is a prerequisite to avoiding the above problems. The TLS working group has deprecated TLS 1.0 and 1.1. Chrome has now also deprecated these protocols.
