Browser Discontinuation


Today is the day Internet Explorer, the web browser that Internet users despise for having too many cybersecurity flaws, gets discontinued by Microsoft. Apparently, Microsoft should have discontinued Internet Explorer a long time ago, especially after the release of Microsoft Edge. But starting from today, users of certain Windows 10 versions who browse the web using Internet Explorer will be redirected to Microsoft Edge instead.

However, in the defence of Internet Explorer, Microsoft's arrogance and complacency left the browser vulnerable to cybersecurity issues, which was the real reason behind the drastic decline of Internet Explorer, forcing Internet users to look for alternatives. Eventually, after more than 25 years, Microsoft decided to discontinue Internet Explorer for good.

Farewell, Internet Explorer. You used to be the dominant web browser, but Microsoft's complacency brought about your demise.
