If they were serious about security, they'd do without JIT in their own browsers too. But that would be silly.

- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoBut IE10, unlike competing browsers, isn't just a "browser" on Windows 8, it's one of the fundamental development platforms built into the OS, along with .NET, WinRT, and Win32. Of course it has special privileges
- batista 14y agoExactly, that _would_ be silly. I don't get this kind of arguments "if you are serious about X you should go all the way, else forget about it altogether". You can both be serious about something AND reach some reasonable compromise. In this case, it is enough that they only allow one JIT that they control and can update/revoke etc immediately.
