I'm still surprised anyone at any time thought Superfish was a good idea or something that customers would want. This was very obviously adware from the beginning and you can't tell me that not a single person raised any concerns about it inside the company. Also, > Q: I have to press you on that. What did the opt-in prose look like? Nobody recalls anything about this being opt-in. > A: I don’t have it in front of me, but I will get it to you. I would sincerely like to see that, because I've set up multiple Lenovo systems and I have never been given the opportunity to opt in to or out of any preloaded software.

> A. When you buy a Lenovo machine and turn it on, this was one of the programs that was presented to you. At that point, you could click a button that says, “I don’t want to use this.” That is the very definition of opt-OUT. He directly claims that user intervention was necessary or the adware would be installed by default.
