Lenovo in the News Again for Installing Spyware on Its Machines.
Gadget.ndtv Sept 25, 2015
"The Chinese technology conglomerate is back in news, this time for allegedly installing a program on at least some of its refurbished notebook lineup that is programmed to send users' feedback data to Lenovo. Upon further inspection, the program seems to have an association with a third-party marketing and Web analytics firm."

The 3rd party company the article mentions is Omniture. The were acquired by Adobe. When I typed in "Omniture.com" this is actually what comes up.
