Both sides of the argument are valid as far as I can see. Nope, it would never have been bundled with malware in the first place I agree, as he could have used some other form of sponsorship such as Google Adwords or the like, but then again he strived to ensure it was always kept above board and that you always knew you aware of what you were installing.

Either he should never have been his MVP in the first place or it shouldn't have been revoked in the way it has. That is one of the worst crimes in all of this that I can see, and you've got Mr bloatware himself to that for that, Billy-boy Gates.

I'm sure Patchou would be welcomed with open arms if he were to develop something similar for amsn he'd be welcomed with open arms.
