Opinion: It's about time someone called a fraud a fraud. Adware vendors who install programs on users' computers without their true permission are stealing from those users.
“The main job of all state Attorneys General is to grandstand as part of a campaign for the Governorship, and Elliot Spitzer of New York is the king of this technique.
There have been many cases where, IMHO, he has gone way overboard. But give credit where credit is due. It's about time someone with heavy-duty prosecutorial authority took on the lowlifes in the adware business.
Given the vigilance with which Spitzer has prosecuted legitimate businesses, one would hope that he will leave no stone unturned in the pursuit of spyware and adware, which he describes as equally objectionable.…”
