Interesting news:
Technology that looks A LOT like Mr. Garza's purchased HTML injection (aka Man-in-the-Middle Attack) patent junk has been found in Lenovo laptops and Leo Laporte is on national radio RIGHT NOW bashing the technology plus Lenovo. Maybe Garza or one of his cronies licensed the tech off to Superfish - as we all know Garza could never do this much damage on his own... then again... hmmmm.

Note: MAKE NO MISTAKE, this is NOT AD-WARE. This is MALWARE!

Scott-

i hope this was a joke..

idk about a "purchase" or a "patent" on Ganza's part (or if he knows what those terms mean), but he deserves approx 0 credit when it comes to using client-side proxies (the "malware" everyone is raving about.. it's not malware until a malicious actor gains control of it, but call Lenovo malicious if you want) to intercept (encrypted) traffic
