Weblog entry #365 for simonw

Which browser should I choose?

With Microsoft being forced to offer a choice of browser to EU citizens it is timely that Microsoft announced yet another security issue with Internet Explorer 8 on the 1st of March which they'll eventually patch.

The answer to which browser you should choose is Firefox.

Why?

It is fast.
It is comparatively secure.
Websites are widely tested with it.
It respects your freedom to know exactly how it works, and what it does with your data.

None of the other browsers meet all four of these criteria, as far as I am aware none of the other browsers meet criteria 4. For a shock try reading the Chrome EULA.
