In 'main' and 'universe' we have strict rules what is allowed. There are lots of criteria that the software must be free open source software.
For the 'partner' repository are there any criteria? I don't want to use the 'partner' repository if it means I get get badware or malware. Some software developers and publishers do bad things.

How about adware, spyware, phone-home, malware, etc? Many software do undesirable things such as: - Change desktop wallpaper background - Add shortcuts to the desktop - Add unwanted browser addons/extensions/toolbars - Change the web browser startup homepage Are software in the partner repository allowed to tamper with binary Ubuntu system files? -- Ubuntu-motu mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-motu
