Y'all know the EULA is not being read. So you have two options. Tell people what is being installed during installation, or let the problem continue.
I await developments with bated breath.
Actually you are looking at this the wrong way. The known problem is that people are careless and don't read what is presented before them.
The option that is available is thus: try to get the message across that its always important to read things before you click ok. This doesn't just apply to the sponsor installation, it applies to using computers in general.
Blaming Plus and Patchou because people are lazy seems a stupid arguement to me. If you mistakenly install the sponsor that's a fault on
your part, not Patchou's. I am yet to read a post on here that says "I read the agreement and agreed to install the sponsor, and then a sponsor got installed!!". The simple truth is, anyone who reads what is clearly presented before them, has never had any problems
