Re: Only 182? 182 ON SCREEN pages. That's totally acceptable IMHO, and if you don't have the patience to read through it then don't click 'yes'.
OK, now to turn off the sarcasm. I just wanted to say that there must be plenty of intelligent minds at work on this website. However, it doesn't seem that we all really put our minds to work to carve out a solution. Fine, we may not have millions of dollars, or tons of political power to start strong right away, but I think if there was some way to synthesize our ideas to solve this problem of adware/spyware/crapware I think we could actually make a difference. I, personally, have never been affected by adware. But that's because I use due diligence. But I truly believe that the sleazy tactics these companies use, no matter how 'legally legitimate', are just down right pathetic. The interesting thing is that if they were to take two seconds to think about how google has integrated ads into a multi billion dollar revenue stream, you'd think they would have changed their practices by now. |

Erie, PA | It's as simple as this:
If the company feels the need to have 182 pages of legal document to describe the license for a piece of software, then it's pretty safe to assume they are hiding something and as such you can't trust the software.
You can solve many of life's problems by just staying as far away from lawyers as you can.
