So we have had a thread discussing the changes with Chrome 80 and its effects on push which you can find here
afflift.com
Which is quite an interesting read and will hopefully continue with some insights on how things have been effected with the changes
But Google is not resting on the laurels and will keep going until they are the masters of the universe!
So they're now planning to block content mixed content downloads which basically means if you serve an HTTPS page but you have some HTTP content or vice versa then it will end up being blocked!
Now, this is not as big an impact as the push thing but needs to be considered as now you'll need to ensure everything is HTTP or HTTPS.
Why should I care? Well if you serve any content over HTTP then there is a very real chance it will be blocked, APK's, EXE's even ISO's yeah whatever 99% of us are not dealing with those but PNG, JPG etc. now those are in our ballpark!
The following chart shows their plan
