Volkswagen Group uses IE6 as standard

    Until now, some large companies have maintained IE6 as their corporate standard. Comes to funny. The site of the world's largest car manufacturer Volkswagen Group published an informational message that sounds like a joke:

    The Volkswagen Group uses Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 as the standard for displaying web pages. For daily work with our web platform, we recommend that you also use Internet Explorer 6.

    By installing the current browser version and updates from Microsoft, we guarantee you a secure connection.

    For security reasons, the Volkswagen Group does not recommend using browsers such as Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Netscape, etc., because they are inferior in security.

    The HackerNews forums rated Volkswagen’s valuable advice from security experts and suggested that this text was written over five years ago. Surprisingly, so far no one has reviewed corporate policies for browsers and web development. A typical example of the slowness of a large corporate car, and Volkswagen is not alone.
