Researchers Chide Zango for Ignoring FTC Adware Settlement

Leading researchers say adware broker Zango continues to employ questionable business practices to distribute its programs, even as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission finalizes a settlement proposed by the company that would ban it from such activity.

In a statement posted on his Web site Nov. 20, independent adware researcher and Harvard-trained attorney Ben Edelman published a list of examples of ways in which he claims Zango is violating the terms it has proposed to the FTC, including the use of misleading EULAs (end user licensing agreements.)
