I initially only installed “Comodo Firewall” but for some reason they also installed a “Comodo Dragon Browser”, which I did not consent to. I always choose the “advanced” installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won’t be able to uninstall the software…

    The dumbest part about this is that if you force people to complete it, they’re more likely to select a random option and click “next”. Any information they get from this survey will be mostly useless.

        I think even then, they’d recognize fast that it’s just fake text. For maximum impact, get an LLM to generate a long winded but realistic sounding response. It’ll probably be obvious eventually that it was an LLM because their writing style is so distinct, but it takes much longer to recognize.

      I needed a new heel for my shoe, so I decided to go to Morganville which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So, I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ‘em. ‘Give me five bees for a quarter,’ you’d say. Now, where were we? Oh, yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.

    You picked “other”. Just pick any other reason. Like, the one likely saying “I didn’t want to install this”.

Encryption, firewalls, and safeguards, all woven together with the deftness of a digital tapestry artist, form the backbone of this browser’s security arsenal. However, like the unpredictable whispers of the wind, a sense of doubt persists, as if the gates of privacy might not be as impregnable as they purport to be.

          Features and Customization:

          Comodo Dragon Browser, much like the mythical chameleon, adapts to the whims of its user, offering a myriad of features and customization options. From tab management to ad-blockers, from password managers to incognito modes, the browser is a cornucopia of digital tools that empowers the user with a sense of control. Nevertheless, amidst the plethora of possibilities, a confounding labyrinth emerges, an intricate mosaic of bewildering menus and options, leaving the user to navigate a convoluted path in pursuit of simplicity.

        Cool. At least they get to read something entertaining then. Also, I seriously doubt any of the input ever gets read by a person at all. Chances are it gets collected and processed by some application to generate a list of keyword for their customer satisfaction reports.

          Uhmm you said you type “offense shit”. That means if an employee reads that just adds to their already awful day. Especially if what you write particularly awful.

          Btw you are not the only person likely typing awful stuff in that text box

            Like I said, the chances of any human ever reading it are extremely small. Close to 0%. Shit like that is automated.

      I’m half surprised that you can’t force uninstall from windows, I guess it’s due to MS requiring software to provide its own uninstaller

      apt uninstall <blah>

      doesn’t mess around
