Exactly our point Adeptus, it is through their own negligence that people install it. Just like people who say "I accidentally downloaded WGA from Automatic Update and now it knows my version of Windows isn't genuine". There is always an option to not install/download something, it's just whether people are smart enough to find it/look for it.
So, you admit that the adware is undesireable by virtually everyone and being snuck onto their systems when they fail to pay adequate attention to prevent it.
I believe you just proved the point opposite from that which you were trying to.

Patchou is a nice guy in a tough place (though not without his own choosing).
As for C2Media and their full "product", however -- I would not urinate on them if I saw them on fire. It continues to elude me how outfits engaging in such activity are permitted to operate in civilised countries and why we can't simply shut them down and charge their corporate officers with ten million counts of criminal computer trespass.
