Well then lets just call it sh*tware. I don't care what name you give it.
Actually, I do. It is a program that installs without the users permission, does things NO user wants (I dare you to find me one who WANTS spyware/adware/crapware), is very difficult to remove, effects system performance, gathers information.....
Where along the lines did we decide to call it anything but a commercial Virus anyway?

1 edit | You can't hide whats inside  . Would they like it if we called their software 'unkowingly-installed-crap-using-misworded-terms-and-agreements-and-piggybacking-on to-someti mes-worth-while-software'-ware
i also like how their website says 'Free From spyware' instead of 'Free of spyware' |
