Pikko brought down the final word from SE. Now they are trying to start up issues with her. Can we just get a lock and end this before it begins?

Apparently they figure insulting Pikko is a good way to make a point...

Let me get this straight: someone posts information with the intention to inform people ... and gets flamed?

Correct?

That's no good, but then again: it happens all the time. People who give their honest opinion on a matter or ask a simple - yet to them important - question are verbally stomped into the ground over a (conventiently) misinterpreted part of one of their sentences, not to mention the severe namecalling and disease wishes they might have to endure.

In other words: to me it's not a new thing under the sun. Although I admire Pikko because of her work on his site and her gardening research I would think it would be ridiculous to close this particular thread only because now it happens to be Pikko who is on the receiving end. Alla seems to condone this behaviour.

Read the thread again. There are two administrators posting in there and the email was verified from SE. People need to stop acting like such little fucking babies and realize SE has your name and address to begin with. OH IMMA INTERNET INVESTIGATOR!!!!!

Grow up little children. I second the thread lock notion.

This is crossposted from that particular thread by me to address the issue we're trying to make and I feel the other side need to be allowed to address the issue in the feedback forums as well.

(This were posted in response to one of Pawkeshup's post in that thread not deirected at anyone directly but him)

Do you actually realize that is the issue of the scan itself, not the transmitting of the data in said scan, and no disclosure agreement whatsoever about this specific scan in question is exactly what myself, Arketa and other people in this thread is objecting towards. The only thing that the official statement from SEI itself have said is that POL in no way is changed to transmit said data.

This statement does in no single way even address the issue we're trying bring up. The issue here is privacy and integrety law, which POL does NOT as it currently performs the scan abide to in accordance to their own ToS and User Agreement. The issue we have been trying to make all along, and which you have failed to grasp even at its basic level, is that you need the end-user consent to even initiate a scan of an third partys system (there are no IFs, BUTs and MAYBEs), you cannot legally do this without having a clause in your ToS, End User Agreement, EULA or license etc . . . that explicitly states exactly what you are scanning for, what is done with the data (including transmitting it) and how it will be handled.

All SEI currently defines are:

1) actions initiated and performed within the POL software and network itself
2) The DNAS check itself, which doesn't encompass running processes and applications on the system in qestion

The issue is that they havn't updated their own license to actually encompass a system scan of running processes. It doesn't matter if it is only looking for one single application, it has to be disclosed in full what the scan perform in an License, ToS or similar document to legally do the scan outside of your own companies owned hardware.

This is the issue at hand, nothing else which you continously seem to derail the thread into it is about. So would you please stop putting words inot our mouth and quoting parts of the User Agreement and ToS which doesn't even cover this specific behaviour. We're all just after an explanation why this scan is happening or a change of the ToS and User Agreement itself so they actually legally can perform this scan.

I myself have no qualms whatsoever about the scan, as long as I AM informed and it is included in above stated documents. As it currently is I am not officially and legally informed about this.

Do you really want to drag this into the forum feedback area? You're playing their game. You installed their game. You pay for their game. The fact that SE responded and sent that response to be posted here should explain how seriously they take that accusation. Yet here you guys are still crying foul when absolutely nothing has been done!

You guys don't like it, quit. SE hasn't done **** to your computers. They haven't touched them. And until someone here can actually come up with undeniable proof that they actually are doing something, you all need to shut up and let it drop.

I think you guys seem to forget that the Administrators are here to keepthe forums clean, they are paid to do a job. THEY ARE DOING THEIR JOBS. And you ******** want to insult them. Put the shoe on the other foot. How would you like someone getting mad because you didn't give them the answer they wanted, so then they start insulting you.

Yeah, you're real big(general statement not directed towards you liquidedust.)

I don't want to drag the discussion here, however our side of the issue is well reflected in that quote however and is also our reason to why we want the thread open.

If you want to address the statement I do want you to respond in the thread in question, since it weren't mean as a post on the topic here. Just our side of the issue.

And I do admire the administrators work, but unless heard from sides on an arguement it becomes quite single-sided (as per this issue where there is disagreement) on what to close and not.

The issue about my computer I would personally see you take in either pm or the thread in question since that discussion doesn't belong in here as you said yourself (the repost were just our side of the story since I feel we need to be adressed as well).

And I have kept civil in all my posts in both threads, stating the reasons why I see it the way and why this is a potential issue. I have gotten some flames, some yelling, some decent discussion.

Not everyone of course agree with me, but that is what forum is about. Arguements at its core.

Ok flat out. Show me exactly where and how SE has begun doing these things to your computer. Can you show any proof of this supposed wrongdoing by SE. And I am not talking about he said, she said garbage. If you want to talk about this then you had best be able to back it up. So by all means, show me some proof.

Apparently you missed this part. I will bold the parts that are relevant to you.

Who's they? The only one who directed anything toward pikko was teh OP. He's stoppe dposting.

The rest of the thread is blindly marching to teh defense of SE (who was never "attacked"). Fact: a scan is taking place, its been proven. You can run the test yourself and see it. SE says nothings being sent, this can be true and not make the previous statement false. One poster said it looks like something half finished. makes sense to me. COuld be as simple as vista compatability/soon to be added windowed mode stuff. Unfortunatly, most of teh replies are from SE defenders who assume anyone who wants to know must be saying SE is "the ebil emprie" or is a cheater worried about getting caught.

You people have no ability to comprehend what you see past what you {i]want[/i] to see, I'm sick of all the damn assumptions flying. The op became a paranoid **** over thread locking, presuming the worst possable scenraio. He's a moron. Everyone taking up the other extreme opposite him is equally stupid.

Can't you all see that nobody wins the internet?
