The Federal Trade Commission will host a public workshop, “Monitoring Software on Your PC: Spyware, Adware, and Other Software,” on April 19, 2004, from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.
The workshop will explore issues associated with the distribution and effects of software that is loaded on personal computers without users’ consent and that gathers and sends information about users to third parties or that adversely affects the computers’ functioning. A Federal Register Notice describing the workshop in more detail will be published shortly. The workshop, which will be held at the FTC’s Conference Center at 601 New Jersey Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C., will be open to the public.
