Re: This like said by FDisk:Lavasoft are a bunch of traitor wooses. This is why AntiSpyware should be done by a corporation like Microsoft. They got better lawyers, more money, and will sue back and win without thinking about it to much. That could set a precedent. If Microsoft calls it spyware, then others have the legal standing to do so as well. As much as some people like to bash Redmond over various things, it would be nice to see them start a class action lawsuit against Hotbar, iDownload and other spyware vendors on behalf of millions of Windows users who get this crap on their systems.
Oh, and Hotbar IS spyware. So sue me. Those morons have no legal standing anyway. Maybe we should start calling their lawyers cartooneys (as in the cartooney legal threats spammer make). To paraphrase a part of Rule #3 from the Rules Of Spam :
Spammer's Spyware Vendor's Standard of Discourse: Threats and intimidation trump facts and logic. -- "Kayura or Badamon, whichever you are, you should know that I will never give up this battle. By the will of the Ancient, I shall succeed!" - Shuten (Anubis) from the Ronin Warriors.To RIAA/MPAA - You can sue but you can't catch everyone! |
