    OpenCandy

    What is OpenCandy and why does it have a bad reputation?

    Google apparently does not give me any satisfactory results. Any nice guys here to help with my problem?

      boycott them into compliance

      OpenCandy is malware (adware). Ads, provide creepy cross domain use stats, and as we all know steal bandwidth. Moreover rationalizing that adware is a service and not an inconvenience- or threat reveals their irrational mindset.

      One of OpenCandy adware developers showed to malware bytes forum to defend himself (digging an even deeper hole)... claiming he's been fighting malware, too, and even uses malware bytes. Yeah, right, I believe that. Do you have any bridges to recommend in your infrastructure?

      OpenCandy sells access to a malware infrastructure for third parties to use. Kind of them? Providing yet another way to have software INFLICTED on the user is... yes... MALWARE: acting other than in the best interests of the users
