Also the point of the article is that nowadays you can only run those old versions on old, insecure version of Windows. For people who do there are probably many more things not working as should, plus they are much more vulnerable to hacks and exploits.
I am not using any version of IE, I only used chrome and that is better than others. Internet Explorer should be destroyed. In an ideal world I would only ever support Google Chrome but that ain't gonna happen. Also when doing development for large businesses like banks, all their office computers often run old versions of windows due to bespoke software therefore they have very old version of IE that has to be supported. I think maybe for public facing websites this kind of view could be taken although I can understand it would be sensitive eg.
But for internal web applications that you have to support old version of IE, I can't see this changing anytime soon. IE8, believe it or not is still in usage and espacially depending on which audience your site targets for example a medical company you will most certanly see that IE8 is used alot more than most think. This is because Windows XP do not support upgrades higher than that and users that still are on IE8 are users that does not understand why they should upgrade.
The only analytics that matter are your own. If IE8 vanishes from your stats, then by all means ignore it. A quick solution would be to charge additionally for everything that goes beyond modern browsers. The financial argument is usually the only one that works. If you're going to support these browsers without additional cost, then it nevers ends - even if, let's say, YouTube stops supporting a certain browser and puts a banner on top of the site.
Supporting IE8 and up is an accessibility requirement here, and with good reason; users with assistive technology may not be able to upgrade.
You put your wishes as developer first if you must, but you'll be exposing your clients to possible lawsuits and your company deserves to go out of business. David Your lawsuit argument would also work for the security requirement.
So in reality, the client could be sued twice. First for not adhering to accessibility requirements and then for not adhering to basic security practices.
I would think, and I really hope, security always comes first when it comes to devices connected to the internet. And that's what this article is all about. Dere friend, David Dylan is correct not only for businesses and average customers, but any sort of mass outlet.
As a technician, i am always implementing stable software, that som mindless auto-update fetischist will perceive as "outdated" and thus "insecure". If an outlet verbosely excludes my software, i will tweak it to look newer. And if the content then turns out to be backward incompatible, i will curse at them and take my business elsewhere. You don't get to tell me how to manage security on my systems. Can you not see how such totalitarian attitude causes resentment?
