Facts Right may be a useless extension that you should keep away from your PC. Facts Right behaves as typical adware and may overwhelm your Web clients with tons of unrequested commercial materials. Unlike the majority of ad-oriented plugins, Facts Right doesn't introduce itself as a shopping assistant. The brief description states that Facts Right will show you facts. Facts Right doesn't specify what these facts will concern. However, it is certain that you can find the same information after spending only a couple of seconds on the search engines. The description is just a 'cover' that tries to hide the real functionality of Facts Right. The software developer behind this tool created Facts Right to benefit from referral commissions. The adware may make everything possible to generate page impressions on third-party affiliate platforms. Facts Right may insert various sponsored links in the search results that you see on legit platforms. Some of these artificially included links may not be labeled correctly, so you may have no idea whatsoever that you are about to visit an advertising site. Facts Right also may set a low-quality search platform as your new homepage. Using it is not recommended since almost all of the results may be manipulated. Facts Right may bombard Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer with large quantities of coupons, deals and exclusive offers. These ads may take the form of pop-ups, banners, in-text ads, transitional ads, and so on. They may decrease the operating speed of the browsers drastically. Some of these ads may offer products that you need since the adware may tune them according to your surfing history. You should be careful because some of the partner domains may be untrustworthy.
