Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber wants an AI agent in every board meeting

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Logitech went coocoo a while ago... But since they've put motherfucking ads in their driver (I have never ever thought i would say such a bizarre thing) I've thrown away my lg-stuff and replaced it. After like 20yrs of brand-loyalty. Ads...in....a....driver...which already sucked ass since the switch to lg-hub. Ugh.
How do they manage that? Like where do the ads actually display?
They silently install Logitech Download Assistant through Windows Update as soon as you plug a logitech device in.
Then you get a an ad to download their software as a popup message by the clock.
Since I saw it on a work machine pre pandemic, I have boycotted Logitech, I now mainly use Pulsar mice and Ducky Keyboards.
I think that's only if you're using their unifying dongle. They dropped that tech I think, not sure they replaced it.
My current Logitech mouse never bugs me, only using a generic driver.
Eh, it only showed up when I plugged it in the first time, but you can find the dll loaded even after.
It doesn't use a lot of RAM or CPU, but for me it is the principle, don't install software without asking me.
Drivers are another matter.
Makes sense. Hateful, but I get it now. Thanks.
