What Up Fellow Spiceheads.
In your opinion (or experience) is Bloatware - that comes pre-installed on PCs simply just a nuisance and resource hog, or is there proof that it can cause actual security risks to the PC or user.
I'm having a discussion at school, and so far all I'm finding is that It consumes resources (i.e space, RAM, etc.); but no proof pointing out security risks (i.e. opening ports, or encourage spyware/ malware, etc)
Has anyone seen anything?
Thanks in advance.
