Avast fined $16.5 million for ‘privacy’ software that actually sold users’ browsing data

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
No they officially (quietly) dropped it like a decade ago
No, they didn't. Alphabet was created as a parent company in 2015 and uses the similarly vague "Do the right thing" in their code of conduct. Google itself still has "Don't be evil" in their code of conduct, unchanged. Google needed Alphabet to not be Google (or they'd get fined to hell) so having everything identical wouldn't have been a smart idea.
That this easily Google-able myth is so pervasive is a wonderful microcosm about online gullibility and laziness.

Wow literally the first thing i searched.
And get fucked for your tone you pedantic little punk.
Love the vibe and energy against pretense for pretense sakes, but your source makes you seem demented as it literally repeats exactly what they said if you read it.
Well fuck me then lol. Swhat i get for linking gizmodo. I'll take the L. Still that guy sucked and i won't unblock him
I too love blocking people who make reading this place shittier.
Read your own article all the way to the bottom ❤️
(Also thank you for citing a fucking Gizmodo article from 2018 instead of the actual Google Code of Conduct which is the top result for "Google Code of Conduct to prove my point about laziness beautifully. Please note, you'll have to read all the way to the end again, sorry. https://abc.xyz/investor/google-code-of-conduct/)
