Remember when this was considered the behavior of malware?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Well the malware authors of yore could have gotten away with it, so long as they attached their malware to an even slightly useful program, added an EULA that was 40 pages long and on one of those pages mentioned the malware and had no way to use the software without agreement.

Wasn’t that basically Bonzi Buddy and whatever software bundled it without any options to opt out? 😆

The activities the program is said to engage in include constantly resetting the user's web browser homepage to bonzi.com without the user's permission, prompting and tracking various information about the user, installing a toolbar, and serving advertisements

Looks to me like they taught Microsoft well in this area.

Ain’t no way bonzi.com redirects to a fucking nft
