[QUOTE="plat, post: 860327, member: 74969"] How can anyone bash the typical consumer who disdains the "end user agreements"?! This is a major shuck-and-jive by shady borderline companies who freely exploit this very human tendency to click thru a windy, jargon-filled jumble of :poop: because they trust the product, it's free and they want it NOW. Old, old exploit. Is the collective "conscience" of Avast better now, since the money machine has been repackaged to seem more "user friendly"? Like I said before: it's not the data mining, it's the extent and hiding of the true purposes. It's cynicism at its "finest." [/QUOTE]
