In November, Zango reached a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission to pay $3 million in ill-gotten gains in response to charges that it deceptively installed adware onto PCs without user consent and then obstructed its removal, violating federal law.
Under terms of the settlement, Zango also must refrain from installing software, without easy removal instructions, onto customer computers that can be monitored remotely without the user’s consent..

PC Tools isn't really stealing Zangos traffic, they are helping us get our traffic and have it go to the people who paid for it.
We should get behind this company see if there is anything we can do to help. I am sure they are helping to clean the net of Zango's shit and every person they help clean is a step in the right direction. If they fold to them it doesn't help us any.ICQ: 86364801 Email: will [at] innovativeassets [dot] com

Yep, hopefully they'll put the affiliate code hijacking trojans on their list as well. Was about time that someone decided that adware is just a nice word for theft.PC Tools isn't really stealing Zangos traffic, they are helping us get our traffic and have it go to the people who paid for it.

The Zango legal team must smoke Harvard style crack or something to come up with this one.
Zango's stance has always been "we aren't stealing traffic, because the end user agreed to install our software", while more often than not their install was either force, hidden, or with a "play video" or "play game" link rather than a clear confirmation of what the user wanted.
Now they are getting upset because a spyware / malware detection software pops up and prompts the users that have chosen to use that software to remove zango...
Guys, you can't have it both ways - either the computer is the users domain and he can do what he likes, or he can't. If he can, then spyware detectors can report your stuff and the user can choose to remove it, or if the use doesn't control his computer in this manner, then there is no way your software would be there to start with.
Zango are rapidly becoming the largest pricks on the internet by far.Comment

Isn't it more accurate to say they enable others to be traffic thieves?Arguing whether the Democratic or Republican party is better is like debating which steaming pile of shit is slightly less stinky.Comment

Well put
Why is it that Zango has taken the evil spotlight all by itself?
Were there not their some major sponsors who knowingly exploited Zango's "capabilities" at the direct expense of their own affiliates' sales?Comment
-
exactly. and if the installs are consensual, then they aren't breaking any laws that exist.
amazing that people still don't get that their own friends are still hijacking their traffic by bidding on their site URL's.Comment
-
Plus all the people getting the installs out there, the affiliates buying from Zango and the sponsors who take no action against them.
Isn't it somewhat pointless to knock the people producing the "tools" while carrying on business as usual with the people who use them?Comment

Some people only see next weeks wage packet. Maybe because it's needed to pay last weeks bills.
Others will fuck who ever they can to get to or stay at the top.
And so many are more impressed by the size of a guys pimp hat rather than what he does and how he conducts his business.
Long term planning has never been a forte in the porn industry.Comment
