CDT Files Complaints Against Major Adware Distributor - CDT today asked the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to put an end to the illegal and deceptive practices of 180solutions Inc., one of the world’s largest developers of Internet advertising software. In a detailed complaint, CDT outlines a pattern in which 180solutions, through a complicated web of affiliate relationships, repeatedly duped Internet users into downloading unwanted, intrusive software. In addition to the “pattern-of-practice” complaint against 180solutions, CDT also filed a specific complaint with the FTC detailing the unfair installation practices of 180solutions affiliate CJB.NET.
