Google's Jigsaw noted OkHttp has integrated ECH, letting third-party Android apps adopt the standard. The release also enforces Local Network Protection permission prompts, enables Certificate Transparency by default, and lets carriers turn off 2G by default to prevent downgrade attacks, rogue base stations, and SMS blasters.
