Microsoft is going to ban cryptography key less than 1024 bits

Latest News i found is something like this
"If your certificate signed with, low, cryptography key than it is, a problematic situation because it will not authenticate your site and therefore customer might move to other site that will hammer your image. If you only have publicly trusted certificates from reputable sellers, there is nothing to worry. If your certificate belongs to local vendor and does not follow the common certificate policy rules, it will suffer from this new rule."
what's your opinion on this news.

Ban != stop
Additionally, I can't find anything regarding this "news" anywhere except on your website.
Well, I did find some "news" about this, but it's all spam on various spam websites.
Any official information? Such as something on Microsoft's website or any websites with actual credibility?
Lol @Damian you're talking to it like it's a person
Don't be surprised, he spammed his website here earlier (topic got removed) and on his profile.
However its true, here is a proper source.
Imo its good that Microsoft does this, iirc 768bit almost primes have already been successfully factorized
Trust me this is fact news.
