Ubuntu will now have Amazon ads pre-installed
TaoPhoenix:
Conceptually, if it takes expert-level skill to disable dangerous features, then we are already on the wrong path...
mahesh2k:
LOL. I don't think adding affiliate links is dangerous feature. It's just annoying that's it.

Not "bad". I had always considered Ubuntu to be essentially "useful/good" - very good, actually.-IainB (September 23, 2012, 07:37 PM)

It is not.

This does feel a bit wrong to me, however, I've used ubuntu for two years, and most of our test machines at work run ubuntu, and nor me nor anyone at work have actually donated anything to Canonical. So I guess I can understand that they are trying to find some other means of survival.
However, if I used Ubuntu with any graphical shell (unity in particular), I would disable this "feature". Doesn't make me feel very good about myself, though :P
