If you need to change your public key for any reason (including the reasons that you mentioned, as well as others), then this will prevent your users who have pinned your public key from being able to access your site. See blog.qualys.com/product-tech/2016/09/06/… for more info. | |

If you are in control yourself you can make sure that the key stays the same, but if it is about a third-party certificate you cannot rely on this. As for CA getting compromised - this should be asked as a separate question, i.e. don' pack multiple topics into one question. | |
