That the stuff included is free and installable on it’s own.
So what’s your issue then? Zorin has a free version that people can opt for if they want
That they aren’t communicating it.
Why do you believe they need to?
Because I believe not doing so is exploiting people that don’t know better.
If it wasn’t then there wouldn’t be a problem with being upfront about it.
Okay, I guess I simply disagree that it’s their responsibility to tell other people there are alternatives to their service and I don’t think any other software vendor is beholden to such a requirement either.
