The Kogan developer staff was sick of keeping their web site working for out of date browsers. So. They added a tax to those using old browsers like IE 7. I guess, even if they do lose sales from it, it won't be that many sales...

That would severely piss me off. Of course, I don't use IE.
Great link bait. Wish I'd thought of it.
That story went global....wow the link juice
How about a 13 year old doing drugs, ordering pizza, ordering lap dancers on dads credit card....

I'd love to know of this increased rankings, would make an interesting case study.
Great link-bait, but it makes me chuckle. If there's any truth to it, they must have pretty junior developers. Each Windows version of IE has been easier to wrangle than the last, and IE7 is a complete blessing in comparison to Mac IE5 and Netscape 4.
If that reads like a 'kids of today'/'back in my day' rant, it probably is. Now get off my lawn...

It was very clever. Hat tip to whoever thought of it.
