討論的頗熱烈的，像是「HP is installing spyware on its machines disguised as an "analytics client"」、「HP stealthily installs new spyware called HP Touchpoint Analytics Client」。
這個軟體會被注意到是因為吃太多資源，而且使用者沒有同意安裝這個軟體 (目前看是起來是透過自動更新機制裝進去的)：「Didn't Install HP TouchpointAnalyticsClient and It's Causing CPU 95-98 Red」(先備份一份在這邊，以免被砍...)。
然後這軟體很明顯會傳資料回 HP：
The HP Touchpoint Manager technology is now being delivered as a part of HP Device as a Service (DaaS) Analytics and Proactive Management capabilities. Therefore, HP is discontinuing the self-managed HP Touchpoint Manager solution.
先前聯想因為類似的行為賠了 350 萬美金，這次 HP 搞這包不知道會怎麼樣...
