Yes, that response was insufficient on a number of points. But what struck me about their statement was this:
The relationship with Superfish is not financially significant; our goal was to enhance the experience for users.
Why in the world do companies keep insisting that datamining and delivering ads "enhances the experience for users"? They can't possibly believe that. If they do, then they're hopelessly delusional. If they don't, then they're scumbag liars. Either way, it does nothing but make them look terrible.
