Lenovo Promises: No More Bloatware

Lenovo has promised to stop preinstalling unnecessary software on its Windows laptops that doesn’t need to be there in a move to provide “cleaner, safer” PCs. Lenovo’s announcement comes in the wake of it being heavily criticized for having preinstalled the Superfish Visual Discovery adware on many of its consumer laptops beginning in September 2014. The company also saw its public-facing website get hacked by the group Lizard Squad in apparent retaliation for Superfish adware. Lenovo says it will post information about all software we preload on our PCs that clearly explains what each application does.”]
