Security researchers have claimed that adware manufacturer Zango does not proceed in accordance with the terms of a November settlement with the US (FTC) Federal Trade Commission. Early November, Zango consented to give a US$3 million penalty for its “undue and unreliable” techniques of giving out its adware.
In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the adware manufacturer has to put an end to distributing advertisements to older versions of its suite. Zango was also compelled to plainly spot pop-up ads that were distributed to users by the softwares and had to obviously ask for consent from users before the software might be deployed.
