DIMOJABE 0 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I was SO excited. Decent, private browsers that still create a comprehensive search result (not slaved via contract to Google) are impossible to find. With CCleaner's original mandate to remove crap others put onto our systems - who better to come up with one? So I gladly gave it a try - until I hit the screen that revealed the Microsoft Ownership. OHN. I'm 60 years old. I have 68,000 hours in front of a screen. I've worked with and for IT professionals. Even I know that Microsoft is not my friend. I dumped the new CCleaner browser as fast as I could and was actually sad. If Piriform can end it's association with the dark side, I will be happy to use it's browser. But apparently no one there has ever heard of the Massive oops Mission Data Repository in Bluffdale, UT... or the MIIC. Also, I tried to pay for CCleaner. It stopped working and became a glitch-filled mess. I tried to pay for Malwarebytes - same results. I'd happily pay if the programs worked when I paid for them. Lose Microsoft already, please.... Google and Microsoft are two of the most evil corporations on the planet. I can elucidate with multiple examples spanning decades of time. Link to post Share on other sites
Admin Dave CCleaner 1 Posted November 9, 2020 Admin Share Posted November 9, 2020 I note that you posted this 6 times - presumably in error - so I took the liberty of deleting the duplicates. 2 hours ago, DIMOJABE said: until I hit the screen that revealed the Microsoft Ownership Could you elaborate on this please? CCleaner and CCleaner Browser are products of a UK company called Piriform. We are not owned by Microsoft and have no partnership relationship with them other than to use some Azure cloud services for hosting.
