Notable Updates

• Enhanced Security for Encrypted Connections: Removed a compromised root certificate (emSign ECC Root CA - G3) from the internal trust store. This proactive security measure ensures that Shift only trusts verified, secure connections and protects you from potential man-in-the-middle attacks using weak encryption keys.
• Improved Privacy for Certificate Verification: Enabled Certificate Transparency (CT) enforcement by default to ensure all website certificates are publicly logged and verified. Additionally, we’ve disabled background auditing queries to Google, ensuring your browsing security is maintained locally without sending unnecessary reporting data to third parties.
