All I can think is the Simpsons episode where a single bear comes down from the mountains which inevitably causes a panic and 'bear patrol': Homer: Not a bear in sight. The Bear Patrol must be working like a charm. Lisa: That’s specious reasoning, Dad. Homer: Thank you, dear. Lisa: By your logic I could claim that this rock keeps tigers away. Homer: Oh, how does it work? Lisa: It doesn’t work. Homer: Uh-huh. Lisa: It’s just a stupid rock. Homer: Uh-huh. Lisa: But I don’t see any tigers around, do you? [Homer thinks of this, then pulls out some money] Homer: Lisa, I want to buy your rock. [Lisa refuses at first, then takes the exchange] Granted that the removal tool does work and is necessary, unlike the 'bear patrol'. However, Lenovo proclaiming that the release of the removal tool + 'no bloatware' in future computers will make them a leader in "providing cleaner, safer PCs" feels a lot like lisa's rock.
