CommScope currently has 4 root CA certificates in the Mozilla root store. For business reasons, after careful review, CommScope has decided
to end its public CA operations. CommScope therefore requests the removal of those root certificates from the Mozilla root store. The
certificates are:

Issuer/Subject Common Name SHA-256 Fingerprint
CommScope Public Trust ECC Root-01 11437CDA7BB45E41365F45B39A38986B0DE00DEF348E0C7BB0873633800BC38B
CommScope Public Trust ECC Root-02 2FFB7F813BBBB3C89AB4E8162D0F16D71509A830CC9D73C262E5140875D1AD4A
CommScope Public Trust RSA Root-01 02BDF96E2A45DD9BF18FC7E1DBDF21A0379BA3C9C2610344CFD8D606FEC1ED81
CommScope Public Trust RSA Root-02 FFE943D793424B4F7C440C1C3D648D5363F34B82DC87AA7A9F118FC5DEE101F1

This change is not subscriber-impacting.

These roots were added to NSS through Bug #1860670. They are not EV-enabled, so it appears that they only need to be removed from NSS (certdata.txt). There do not appear to be any third-party impacts of removing the roots, and therefore these can be removed outright (i.e. without setting any distrust-after date).
