GFI apologizes for false alarm on Samsung keyloggers
- tobylane 16y agoI'm not clicking all these links about this bit of news, but I'm not seeing any headlines about all the other crap OEMs really do put on computers. I was hoping an event like this might get more attention to all that rubbish we don't ever want, and we know what it really does unlike most users.
