For those who may not yet have been motivated to click the link (I wasn't until I saw yet another pointer to it with some more info), it's a blog entry from an Aussie company that's literally imposing a "tax"/surcharge to customers who buy from their site using IE7.
They're "doing their part" to get people to move off of it, and of course they acknowledge that people can of course just freely switch to use another browser to avoid the "tax". Indeed, that's the whole point (as they feel it costs them and the internet as a whole to have to remain backward compatibile.) Interesting solution to the long-standing problem. By the comments there, seems some others may follow suit. /charlie From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Angeli Wahlstedt Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2012 1:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [houcfug] IE7 tax Heh, that's amusing. :-) -- Angeli From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Davis Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2012 12:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [houcfug] IE7 tax Not sure if anyone has seen this.
