Antispyware Coalition...we don't need one, thanks

...and you know why we don't need one? Let me tell you. If everybody does things the same way, then everybody does things the same way. This rather stupid sentence is at least as daft as trying to create a single, unified, one-purpose-fits-all record of "the bad guys". I don't want to do things the same way. Neither do lots of other people, by the looks of it.

Ari Schwartz, here:

"Any unified approach to the spyware problem is going to require a common definition of what the problem is," Schwartz said. "One of the biggest challenges we have had with spyware has been agreeing on what it is."

Who cares what it is!

Just get it off my damn PC already!

I got your Antispyware coalition right here, and its a one-finger salute for every piece of software that ever wandered onto a PC by "accident". It's the only weapon I need.
