An old thread, I know, but this is relevant to the topic and I was very surprised that it's come to this...

We were having an interesting discussion the other day in the DC IRC channel about this spike in traffic on my blog, all related to a single article I wrote about it almost 2 years ago.
What the hell is OpenCandy?
And judging from some of the comments I have been getting, it seems as though some people are having trouble figuring out how OpenCandy ended up on their computer.
A lot seems to have happened in the last 2 years, including OpenCandy switching from opt-in to opt-out (and blaming developers for it) and Microsoft describing the privacy risks as very similar to a lot of what I described in this post.
