"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.

"It’s currently unclear what websites – and how many – are due to be affected by the problem.

"Many of those that are will not likely know they’re affected until it’s already too late, experts say.

"Users of Chrome should brace themselves for disruption or find another browser to use until the issue is resolved, a Forbes report said.

“Based on Google’s current release rate, Chrome Canary users could be facing this decision as soon as next month while the billions of users running the browser’s stable version are looking at a 3-6 month countdown,” the report forecasted.
