I initially only installed "Comodo Firewall" but for some reason they also installed a "Comodo Dragon Browser", which I did not consent to. I always choose the "advanced" installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won't be able to uninstall the software..

The real question is why you installed sketchy firewall software I've never even heard of.

[-] charonn0@startrek.website 71 points 1 year ago

In the early 2000's Commodo was actually a reputable consumer-grade firewall vendor. Like all security software vendors, they eventually became that which they fought against.

Because you're too young to remember a time when Comodo was a decent firewall option for Windows XP.

[-] CmdrShepard@lemmy.one 13 points 1 year ago

Because they already downloaded all the RAM they could so this is the next logical step.

If anyone's wondering. The text above is actually a placeholder commonly known as "Lorem Ipsum" and is used in the design and typesetting industry. It doesn't have a specific meaning or translation because it consists of scrambled Latin words and doesn't form coherent sentences.

My laptop was bundled with McAffee's garbage software, their uninstaller DOES NOT work. They have a tool to get rid of their software on their website but the links were down and when I finally downloaded it, it didn't fully uninstall it. Revo uninstaller wasn't able to get rid of it either, it's like a rootkit! I was only able to get rid of it by contacting McAffee and talking to their tech support

Isn't the option above "other", "I don't want to use it" or something along those lines? just tick that? Never found these to be that annoying. Just pick at random and be done with it.

I seen people suggesting comments like "fuck you" over and over again, but I would actually reply with an actual lecture on how it's immoral to install a secondary software with a primary software install. Be very explicit.

They'll probably not care about your comments, but at least they'll know why you uninstalled, and have it as a data point. And if enough of their customers do the same thing, then they may change policy about it.

About forcing the need to leave a comment when you're trying to uninstall that secondary software, I think that's happening just because you selected the 'other' option, and unfortunately that's something of a standard with these kind of question dialogs.

You picked "other". Just pick any other reason. Like, the one likely saying "I didn't want to install this".

Use a Lorem ipsum generator. The default is 5 paragraphs of useless text. Perfect for situations like this.

Infinite cum. You sit on the toilet to jack off, but you begin to cum uncontrollably. After ten spurts you start to worry. Your hand is sticky and it reeks of semen. You desperately shove your dick into a wad of toilet paper, but that only makes your balls hurt. The cum accelerates. It’s been three minutes. You can’t stop cumming. Your bathroom floor is covered in a thin layer of baby fluid. You try to cum into the shower drain but it builds up too fast. You try the toilet. The cum is too thick to be flushed. You lock the bathroom door to prevent the cum from escaping. The air grows hot and humid from the cum. The cum accelerates. You slip and fall in your own sperm. The cum is now six inches deep, almost as long as your still-erect semen hose. Sprawled on your back, you begin to cum all over the ceiling. Globs of the sticky white fluid begin to fall like raindrops, giving you a facial with your own cum. The cum accelerates. You struggle to stand as the force of the cum begins to propel you backwards as if you were on a bukkake themed slip-and-slide. Still on your knees, the cum is now at chin height. To avoid drowning you open the bathroom door. The deluge of man juice reminds you of the Great Molasses Flood of 1919, only with cum instead of molasses. The cum accelerates. It’s been two hours. Your children and wife scream in terror as their bodies are engulfed by the snow-white sludge. Your youngest child goes under, with viscous bubbles and muffled cries rising from the goop. You plead to God to end your suffering. The cum accelerates. You squeeze your dick to stop the cum, but it begins to leak out of your asshole instead. You let go. The force of the cum tears your urethra open, leaving only a gaping hole in your crotch that spews semen. Your body picks up speed as it slides backwards along the cum. You smash through the wall, hurtling into the sky at thirty miles an hour. From a bird’s eye view you see your house is completely white. Your neighbor calls the cops. The cum accelerates. As you continue to ascend, you spot police cars racing towards your house. The cops pull out their guns and take aim, but stray loads of cum hit them in the eyes, blinding them. The cum accelerates. You are now at an altitude of 1000 feet. The SWAT team arrives. Military helicopters circle you. Hundreds of bullets pierce your body at once, yet you stay conscious. Your testicles have now grown into a substitute brain. The cum accelerates. It has been two days. With your body now destroyed, the cum begins to spray in all directions. You break the sound barrier. The government deploys fighter jets to chase you down, but the impact of your cum sends one plane crashing to the ground. The government decides to let you leave the earth. You feel your gonads start to burn up as you reach the edges of the atmosphere. You narrowly miss the ISS, giving it a new white paint job as you fly past. Physicists struggle to calculate your erratic trajectory. The cum accelerates. The cum begins to gravitate towards itself, forming a comet trail of semen. Astronomers begin calling you the “Cummet.” You are stuck in space forever, stripped of your body and senses, forced to endure an eternity of cumshots. Eventually, you stop thinking.

The dumbest part about this is that if you force people to complete it, they’re more likely to select a random option and click “next”. Any information they get from this survey will be mostly useless.
