Sensationalism tag can be removed

It is clear that this tag is unnecessary. And the history from corporation attacks in the talk page, must included in the main article, so future generations can read the conduitgate ;-). BoldLuis (talk) 13:35, 17 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Past Tense

edit

This article is written in the past tense, but as far as I'm aware conduit toolbars (under various names: Trovigo, http://www.seekforsearch.com/, https://www.better-search.net/) are still out there, so who is making them if this is an ex-product?

The "about" link at the bottom of http://search.conduit.com (still live) links to http://info.trovi.com/, which gives a company name and address. Evidently someone, somewhere (Israel?), owns, distributes and profits from the conduit software, so this article could do with an update (including a change to the present tense).

I'm leaving this comment because I'm not sure I have enough information to make the required changes (I have a feeling that ownership of such malicious but apparently profitable software is quite obfuscated), but I think it's an important issue to raise. --Tomatoswoop (talk) 17:59, 22 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Tomatoswoop: I agree you raised an important issue and that page should stay. Not sure about past or present tense. Conduit name doesn't exist anymore. It is re-branded and we cannot know how much of new product is actually developed from the past Conduit toolbar. I think some of the earlier comments addressed that.Gpeja (talk) 23:55, 11 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
