Lenovo admits to Superfish SNAFU, plans to release clean-up tool
Lenovo has admitted it "messed up badly" by pre-loading software on some consumer laptops that exposed users to possible attack, and said it will soon release a tool to remove it.
"I have a bunch of very embarrassed engineers on my staff right now," Lenovo CTO Peter Hortensius said in an interview Thursday. "They missed this."
