Wear tinfoil hats when using Adobe products
You're not the only one watching what you do in Adobe Creative Suite 3, the company's ubiquitous photo-and-design software package. Adobe is watching you, too. According to this screenshot from Uneasysilence, launching Adobe CS3 triggers communication between your computer and behavioral analytics firm Omniture. (For starters, Adobe could have chosen a partner with a less ominously Foucauldian name.)
Adobe confirms the function, saying they use information gleaned about user behavior to gain "business insight into how to create better user experiences." Don't want to be their guinea pig? Omniture lets you opt out.
