FTC Shuts Down Fraudulent Antispyware
Company
03/14/2005 06:26 PMChalk one up for the good guys. The FTC today announced that it's
filed a restraining order against a company that allegedly offered
Internet users a spyware scanner program that falsely reported that
computers were infected with spyware, and which failed to remove any
spyware at all from infected machines. (We detailed some similarly
sketchy businesses in last fall's story,
Poor Defenders.)
"In an effort to induce consumers to purchase and download the
defendants' "anti-spyware" software from their Web site, the
defendants make numerous material deceptive representations in their
marketing media," the FTC report says."
"First, after describing the various dangers of spyware
surreptitiously installed on a computer, the defendants represent that
they have "scanned" or otherwise examined the consumer's
computer and have detected that spyware already resides on it. In
numerous instances, the defendants make these spyware detection claims
when the computer has no spyware residing on it."

googled it and didn't find anything so off to be disputed it went. I
got my $4 back, but of course I should have put it on the weblog here
so others in the same situation can find out about it. Or maybe
someone can comment and tell me who they are? I'd have to have

Taxpayers vs. Citizens
Taxpayers vs. Citizens
12/29/2003 12:26 PM Robert Herold of the Pacific Northwest Inlander has a good commentary
on the semantics of "taxpayers" vs. "citizens." An excerpt: Taxpayers
are just full of anxiety. Citizens seek to participate in a
constructive manner. Taxpayers seek always to reduce public life to a
balance sheet. Citizens seek ways of broadening and deepening public
life. Taxpayers, by definition, live in a private world, and they
don't much like government penetrating that world. The word "taxes"
symbolizes that penetration. Citizens seek life in the polis. Citizens
live in a world of values, which, when agreed upon, determine how we
will live....
