Lynx. It was good enough in 1992; it should be good enough now.

That's what I used at work, because they wouldn't
give us a browser.
I spent approximately 40 hours compiling a browser
from source (had to build all the libraries it
needed, first). The IT department kept a log of all
downloads, and they spotted my source download. And
they sent out a message to "destroy all copies".
Leaving us with Lynx.
You don't really surf with Lynx. It's main claim to
fame is allowing you to download stuff (like maybe
a PDF file on a site).
There is a piece of software that was given
a similar name, like "links", which is apparently
another one of those text-only browsers.
It's only 19 years old.
