There is no "most". Any company that makes use of spyware is contemptible.

Is Spyware a VIRUS? (poll)

"
Now that many of the activist-hackers of the early 90's have grown up and discovered it's even cooler to have a 9,000 square foot home and a Ferrari than "changing the world" with CODED MESSAGES ever was, we're in a position to understand the recent harmful innovations in MARKETING that now plague all our machines as the intelligent evolution of Virus Craft... more

" While I agree with your main point, that they put out a lot of quality software, they also put out Acrobat Reader, which is in many ways a terrible piece of software. Not just technically, but in terms of policies, including built-in spyware, reduced support for non-Microsoft browsers, patent abuse to restrict competitors, a DRM implementation that cripples the functionality of the software... more

Adware is the Spam of tomorrow... everybody hates it (at least they say so) but they all like and take the traffic. Give and take a few.

And what exactly is Spyware for you?

Anyway... as in any business, there is good and bad... Some adware is even giving the users benefits and don't piss them off.

" Microsoft?s spokesman once again emphasized a well known, but somehow disregarded fact ? users still do not care about their privacy and their systems security. Virus authors and spyware makers still successfully use social engineering techniques that help them to trick a large number of people every day:

The social engineering tactic is working for virus writers. People are still clicking on attachments and links in IM messages and becoming infected. Even with all the education programs, there?s still a large number of customers being tricked everyday...Microsoft?s spokesman once again emphasized a well known, but somehow disregarded fact ? users still do not care about their privacy and their systems security.

Now I'm Really Sick of 180Solutions

Today 180Solutions updated their blog (I'm not even going to link to it I'm so mad, and I'll be removing it from my blogroll) saying a few words that are aiming at us. They say that we only focus on 180Solutions and that we should be writing about how South Park mocks religions, races, and disabilities. Well, as you know, South Park is one of my favorite TV programs (as known in my lists) and I can tell you that's some straight-up funny stuff... more
