How Deep is the Rabbit Hole?

“How far down does the rabbit hole go”, you'll be unpleasantly surprised how many well known brands are knowingly ssociated with spyware, it will question if you want to shop with them or use their services again, By the same token they can actually unknowingly be the victims too, just like you. Even one or two of your favourite search engines earn £'s millions by close allegiances with companies which have been deemed spyware.

What a majority of the UK public don't realise is actually how prolific this problem actually is. It is estimated 9 out of 10 home & business computers are infected. Yep that's 90%. Unfortunately, because Spyware can also be an invisible beast, most people don't realise it's actually on their computer. Where adware displays uninvited ad pop ups or steals website traffic, spyware runs in stealth mode operating covertly on your computer without your knowledge relaying information to the mothership.

Unfortunately knowingly or unknowingly many recognised retailers, gambling firms, pornographic sites, mp3 music download (Peer to Peer), financial service companies & travel companies are either in association with these unscrupulous companies directly, have their ads displayed by them or are actually victims themselves.

Something the Government may have been either been turning a blind eye to or more interested in economic growth rather than internet privacy issues. Hopefully this can be brought to their attention in a national petition which we will be forming very soon so that the governement can act more swiftly to eradicate the problem.
