Hi Jose, very interesting detail in your SourceForge ticket reply!

A while ago, a similar issue was noticed by German Heise c't magazine when Skype was found to be visiting links mentioned in chats. The companies probably call those a feature (antivirus, security, caching, optimized ads??) but I would just call it a very bad habit (or "trend"). It is a bit similar to a few years ago when LinkedIn and similar sites invited users to give sites their mail login password, so LinkedIn could harvest all contacts and send them all some nice spam called invitations. Or to the more modern trend where websites REQUIRE the user to login with their facebook or similar account. All those great ideas :-p Regards, Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
