Chase Bank May Drop Support of Chrome, Opera
mwandaw writes "Banking giant JPMorgan Chase may drop support of some popular browsers because they do not 'all offer the minimum levels of security that we require while others may not perform well with our site.' After July 18 you may not be able to access the website with a browser that they do not support. The list of browsers they currently support seems outdated: Internet Explorer 6.0 and higher, Firefox 2.0 and higher, and Safari 3.0 and higher (for Macs only). With usage of IE6 plummeting and concerns about its security well known, the inclusion of that browser seems suspect. On the other extreme, rising star Chrome appears to be left out, too. What does Google think of that?"
I find it hilarious that Time Warner Cable is, at least by implication, suggesting that there actually exists a browser in which dealing with them could represent "the best possible shopping experience"...
"We paid Vice President McNepotista's retarded cousin Benny six hojillion greenbacks to lash up a flaky site in Front Page, and if we had to acknowledge that our crappy site doesn't render in most standards compliant browsers, we might not feel like such virile corporate stallions tonight while we're snorting coke out of a hooker's ass crack."
If you were blocking sigs, you wouldn't have to read this.
I think it's just they're way of saying that if you've got the competence to install Chrome, then perhaps you shouldn't be buying from us.
Considering Chase was one of the few that played recklessly with our money, I guess I wouldn't have to worry about their insecure system anyway because I wouldn't give them my money if they were the last bank in America. Instead it will be the First National Bank of My Mattress.
....and you're breaking the code of conduct by posting on slashdot as a chase employee....oh noes...so am i!

Who are JPMorgan Chase? I did a Google search for them and I didn't find anything?
