CDT Praises Zango Settlement, Urges Enforcement - CDT on Monday filed comments with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) praising the commission for negotiating a landmark settlement with adware distributor Zango Inc., but also raising concerns that Zango continues to engage in some of the same practices that necessitated the settlement in the first place. In a press release issued on November 3, 2006, Zango claimed that it "has met or exceeded the key notice and consent standards detailed in the FTC consent order since at least January 1, 2006." In its comments to the FTC, CDT provides substantial evidence that that is simply not the case. CDT urged the FTC to put pressure on Zango to live up to its obligations under the settlement.
