Why do some installers for legitimate, well known pieces of software have unwanted applications bundled in them?

261 viewsOtherTechnology

When I download some installers and run them I notice it offerring me to install other things like Opera. I don’t understand why they feel the need to do this. Why? Are they endorsed by the people who made them?

Yes, software companies pay more popular companies to bundle their installers with the more popular product.
