Group to 'Name and Shame' Spyware Makers
A Reuters newswire article, via CNN/Money, reports that:
Internet researchers at Harvard and Oxford universities say they are seeking to enlist Web users in a program to name and shame suppliers of spyware and other malicious software programs.
The Stop Badware Coalition will seek to spotlight companies that make millions of dollars by tricking Web users into putting spyware, adware or other deceptive software on their machines, organizers from the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard and the Oxford Internet Institute said.
