:mad Ok So I Have Some Juicy Zango Info

ok so if you look at this screenshot of the zango installer you'll notice that the installer has a pre checked "I am over 18 years old" box at the bottom

But as I thought about zango for a minute and what they offer it came to me, Zango does not offer ANY content on their site aimed at people over 18 years old! Just about everything on their site is for kids with all their games and stupid videos. So does this mean that zango is aiming the porn site popups at children as I could not find any content that would intise over 18's to download zango. Also the 18 years old box is PRECHECKED so most people would just hit return and never notice this box but if it was not prechecked then they would loose a lot of customers as everything is aimed at kids, So in affect you buy traffic from zango your really sending porn to children this really disturbs me. I do admit that there will be a lot of over 18's with zango but I would say most are under 18. Just an observation! So what do you think guys is zango intentionally serving up porn to children? Is this grounds for reporting zango to some sort of regulator? Or am I just looking to far into this!

Yes I am sure they get A LOT of kids with zango installs. Maybe not the majority of users, but a lot for sure. And having that pre-checked is just wrong. But then, everything about scumware is just wrong.

The pre-checked approve or over 18 boxes are directly against the rules that Zango has agreed to adhere to from Truste for toolbar and download installs.

Zango pre-checks every approve, accept, or over 18 box... corporate policy.

Just slightly scummier than everyone else.

When I used to have a site on adware/spyware/malware, I got a lot of emails from parents who let their kids on the family computer and sure enough computers were full of crap. Parents seemed to always be the ones to notice something was very wrong with the system, but most of the time kids were the ones who got this shit in the computer in the first place. Yes kids got a lot of popups too, including porn.

Computers were infected with MANY adware programs as most of them come bundled. One woman who had emailed me about removing zango (it kept coming back after uninstalling it) a few years back had gotten it when she downloaded a free kids game for her DAYCARE use.

A lot of this stuff is aimed at kids... simple reason for this, they don't read anything!! They just want to get the free game or whatever it is they want, so they click "yes", "ok", "I agree" but they have no clue what they're getting. My niece is 11 years old and every time she touches the computer, it ends up with some crap in it. All she does is play games and chat with friends. Good thing she has her own and no valuable info in it.

Again, I am not fluent in zango, but I thought it only popped up on the keywords or URL's that were purchased.

Wouldn't that mean that mainstream is using this against their competition too? So unless the kid did a search for porn they aren't going to get hit with cams, but if they do a search for My Little Pony, they might get Barbie popping up.

Right?

Or maybe they do a search for "Barbie" and get ads for Lannie Barbie?

is Christina Aguilera nude in this or is it a see-though top? her nipples look fucked up..

http://www.zango.com/destination/cat....aspx?pid=9781

here's laura prepon masturbating

http://www.zango.com/destination/cat....aspx?pid=9954

Looks like they're grabbing their content off the web. The description on this one gives it away:

http://www.zango.com/destination/cat...aspx?pid=28305

"E-mail [email protected] with your name and e-mail address and I'll contact you when the full length movie Boy Who Never Slept is released online for FREE. That's right the entire 1.5 hr movie will be released in DVD resolution online for FREE."

google that e-mail address and you'll find that vid on yahoo, and tons of other sites..

no pops.. just don't click "Watch".. and sure enough, the checkbox is pre-checked..

Install zango and tell me how many of these get a porn popup from zango.
I would be interested in seeing that result.

zango is a real pain in the ass for even little children.

I can just immagine parents telling their kids no computer until we get it fixed after seeing some of these popups

alaska has got the right idea http://blog.ericgoldman.org/archives..._antiadw_1.htm


Also it does not mention in the zango eula about adult sites whatsoever so there is no warning of adult sites at all

they don't care. They get paid everytime their zango page pops up. Whether or not the person has a credit card or is old enough to buy they don't care they get paid. If you removed all the traffic that comes from kids I bet they would take a huge cut in revenue.

The can try to spin it anyway they want but they can't deny the fact that the kids games and shit comes with the search assistant bundled in. The search assistant the part that targets the urls and pops up pages that some adult companies are paying for. If zango cared they wouldn't include a feature that displays porn on content that is aimed at kids.

I've mentioned this in the past and think this would be a great way to get the religious groups who are trying to protect kids from porn to help fight zango. If someone could get this info to them and get them fired up about it, they could do a lot more damage then we could.

Google: warner bros zango
Warner Bros was promoting zango and a lot of people started complaining it was putting porn on their kid's pcs. Warner bros finally dropped zango because of it.

Right?
LOL someone sent me an ICQ just the other day that did a suggested keyword search on zango for "xxx" and one of the suggestions came back with something like " free disney xxx "

Do you think all words that we use for adult sites are exclusivly used for adult and none of them also have common uses in mainstream ?

What about "disney webcams" ? the word "teen" how often is that associated with adult sites? I am sure there are a good bit of terms that have porn and non porn uses that kids could be looking for.

We don't need to send the FTC to this board.

You can definitely complain about Zango to the FTC though. They know what Zango is up to but will surely prioritize their list of scummy companies based on the number of complaints received.

baddog, you're such a dumbass. You're sole purpose in this thread is to troll jacklaidlaw because he has some additional zango information? Admit it, you're just a sigwhore aren't you baddog?

Anyway, yes they had live cam feeds 10+ years ago. For such an old fucker, did you get into the internet late? There were cam reflectors, and cams long long ago. How about White Pine? Do you remember them? Or the Cornell CU-SEEME?

You can definitely complain about Zango to the FTC though. They know what Zango is up to but will surely prioritize their list of scummy companies based on the number of complaints received.
From: http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2006/11/zango.htm

(The FTC press release concerning the proposed consent agreement with 180 Solutions/Zango)

"The agreement will be subject to public comment for 30 days, beginning today and continuing through December 5, after which the Commission will decide whether to make it final.

Comments should be addressed to the FTC, Office of the Secretary, Room H-135, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580.

The FTC is requesting that any comment filed in paper form near the end of the public comment period be sent by courier or overnight service, if possible, because U.S. postal mail in the Washington area and at the Commission is subject to delay due to heightened security precautions."

There's more stuff about the FTC and Zango here, including an analysis of the proposed agreement to "aid public comment."

The FTC snail mail address listed in bold above is as good a place as any to submit comment about Zango; be sure to relate your comment in some way to the proposed consent agreement/settlement, though, or they will likely not give your comment much consideration.

We would need some major awareness brought to this, in order to have any kind of effect probably. Strong letters written who make good solid points and raise issues they may not have considered. I would love to see Jayeff come up with something we could all print, sign and mail in too. Anyone who has read his thoughts knows what I mean.

Yep. Good prose and organized thoughts are both good; documented evidence of possible criminal activity, and/or documented evidence of conduct that fails to comport with what they've agreed to do under the proposed consent agreement - either of those would be even better.

Honestly, research like Ben Edelman's, alone, might be enough to get the FTC to reexamine their settlement with Zango, assuming the information he has presented is accurate, and his data (and documentation of that data) holds up to scrutiny.

Do you think all words that we use for adult sites are exclusivly used for adult and none of them also have common uses in mainstream ?

What about "disney webcams" ? the word "teen" how often is that associated with adult sites? I am sure there are a good bit of terms that have porn and non porn uses that kids could be looking for.

Good thing she has her own and no valuable info in it.
