"Legal" is just a term that means "rules that don't apply to people who are wealthy".
I'd say "rules that don't apply to people who have expensive lawyers" but I have experience dealing with law-breakers who got away with what they did... and they didn't need a lawyer; no one ever questioned their integrity (except me but I don't matter). In fact the authorities helped them get away with their crimes by helping them get rid of "inconvenient" evidence.
Oh well... a little bit of data-leaking probably won't be nearly as damaging as that was...
Personally, I'm still going to limit what I run, though, since I don't know how to manually sandbox new software, which is the appropriate way to deal with the concern presented in this topic.
It's usually written without spaces but I have a habit of conjoining or breaking things up into their key-parts with hyphens. "ice-cream", "pineapple-pen", [etc. I didn't actually finish this list before posting or notice]
This might not be correct & sometimes I do it implicitly without thinking about it. It just makes it more legible, imo, though. It also clearly communicates which nouns that other nouns (acting as adjectives / descriptors) go with in certain situations where it would otherwise be ambiguous.
I also do it with prefixes & suffixes because spell-check doesn't tend to understand those so "prefilled" gets red lines under it but "pre-filled" makes it complain a little less & in some prefix situations it makes spell-check stop complaining all together.
Usually when people have doubts about their privacy , it s natural to turn to AV programs to make sure they are secure . But it could be gently covered .
lol.
The worst you can say about software like Synapse is that it's bloatware. Meaning, whatever I want to do with this keyboard outside of plug-and-play (no, that's NOT one word), I can find a shortcut for it on the net.
But labeling Synapse "spyware" and "keylogger" is untrue. It had a zero day that required direct access and I believe it's been patched. Probably that's why it's being pushed thru Windows Update recently.
Zero days can happen to anyone.
Sometimes you are not given that option, because an installer is shady at best or malicious at worst. ...but also because glitches happen, so while they may have intended for you to be able to opt out, a bug in the software can cause it to skip over that screen, showing it for only a fraction of a second before advancing.
I had that problem once, and the places AVG forced itself into were just horrid. It was a "legitimate" install version, it just didn't get my permission before doing so, due to the bug & "default is opt out" model instead of "default is opt in". Their toolbar was disgusting, very hard to remove, and now I despise their product.
Any time that the default for any unexpected & bundled item in an installer, product, or service, anywhere in life, is "opt out" after an install, or service update, then that is something that, due to errors, and / or other accessibility issues, is being forced upon some people & didn't actually receive their consent ...if given a large enough sample size of users / customers.
This is a very naive view of both how malware & the operations of "the justice system" work.
Sometimes things work correctly but even the collective of people isn't omniscient & given the amount of dogmatic willful ignorance in society, actually quite a lot of bad things fall through the cracks...
[Now, that said, your arguments as to why "Razer" is probably not malicious are quite sound.]
Type of software exploit that isn't known about yet but often can be used by a malicious actor, such as a hacker, to escalate privileges if they do something like send you a piece of data (maybe through the web-browser, maybe through a chat-client, there's a lot of ways for this to happen) that does something like cause a buffer overflow and make your legitimate software engage in unintended behaviors (that the malicious actor most likely did intend, though, but the developer of the software being exploited did not intend).
Asking Google might provide more detail if that's not a good enough explanation for you.
Do you need a software which is not that needed.
BTW, Ryzer Synapse 3 is using Amazon's A.I. Alexa so there is sort of spyware
Humans create software and despite the best efforts, occasionally a mistake in the coding can allow a malicious individual/s to bust his/her way thru and create issues on one's machine somewhere.
An exploit is the successful breach of an otherwise benign software with a flaw in its coding. A payload is the malware that is dumped thru the exploit or hole in the software in order to execute something (like ransomware or a backdoor heaven forbid) onto a compromised machine.
Don't worry. Usually one has to go out and actively ask for bad stuff to happen--like running a browser without security ext. that hasn't been patched in like six months or something.
Edit for typos and to add some more text.
It has the most relevant information to the topic.
I may disagree with a few of his points but I certainly can recognize that the points he makes about why Razer, more likely than not, is not malware & probably does not contain malware, are very convincing.
Policy and justifications :D
I read the entire post so and felt it was the most relevant and answered my question. So no, It was not because it was long
Cool, let me know about that time there was Microsoft or Google ransomware or when they used people's social security numbers & credit card numbers to commit identity theft & make fraudulent purchases.
The stuff they do with data collection is rather undesirable at times but it's not the same as outright malware.
