Chinese Company Lenovo Still Using Rootkit for Software!

[calahan]

"Will Lenovo ever learn that we don’t want all of their software? Just 2 years ago, the Chinese company (Lenovo), has been banned from supplying their equipment to the networks of intelligence and even the defense services all over the globe. This has been issued by hacking as well as spying concerns brought upon Lenovo."

It was a sad day when IBM decided to sell off their laptop business... but then again people are pushing so much for lower prices on machines that by their very nature would be expensive so maybe IBM would have felt the economic pressure to do similar things if they still had a thinkpad line.
