No, they are rejecting and cert which uses sha1 and claims to have been
issued after 2016-01-01T00:00:00.
The latter part is important.
The commercial CAs have agreed not to issue any sha1 certs starting on
that date, so the refusal does not affect anything using mainstream
commercial certs.
So the browser vendors are not doing anything of actual value, just
engaging in some theatre.
