Zango Chokes

I’m a world away from Seattle, but reading this jewel of a news story from the Seattle P-I really made me perk up this evening:

Massive layoffs at pop-up advertiser Zango

Zango, formerly 180solutions, has received criticism over the years for installing its ad-serving software without computer users’ knowledge and making the uninstall process difficult to navigate. In 2006, the company settled a dispute with the Federal Trade Commission and agreed to pay a $3 million fine.

Since that time the company has made a series of acquisitions to broaden its focus, including New York-based HotBar…

I’ve hated this firm from day one, and pray for its demise in the coming months.
