It's kind of sad that this is the only way Ubuntu figured they can make money.
- nicholassmith 13y agoIt's not, it's one of a number of ways they monetize their product.
- Zigurd 13y agoNo, it's sad that they don't take a holistic view of how they make money: They serve enterprise users and help create Ubuntu-based products for a fee, which business they would not have if Ubuntu was not the leading Linux distro, which it won't be if they screw up privacy issues. Ubuntu has lost quite a bit of share to Mint. I have not been cranky enough about Unity to switch, but if I do find search data leaking despite the "privacy" settings that would about do it.
