The uTorrent team, in their defense, claim that they have signed a partnership agreement with EpicScale and that is how they generate revenue. Plus, there is no guarantee that it doesn't have some backdoor which makes your PC vulnerable to attack or snooping. Or suppose you installed uTorrent on a laptop, then EpicScale will reduce your battery charge level to 0% very quickly. The EpicScale software can create issues for you by reducing your PC's performance by overloading the CPU. A company whose goals are using your PC's processing power to "change the world" is by no means trustworthy because you never explicitly opted in to install their software, they installed it silently like a virus or other type of malware would. The Windows ecosystem has had a problem with such unwanted crapware for a long time. EpicScale claims that all profit obtained from such activity will be used to "change the world". They can use it to perform any computations - solve various math problems, physical processes modelling and for Bitcoin mining.
which uses your PC for their own purpose.
What is EpicScale? It is an application created by EpicScale Inc. Many uTorrent users have confirmed this fact.
It will be installed without any confirmation from you, and the uTorrent installer does not have even a checkbox to avoid installing the crapware. If you are using the latest version of the uTorrent app, you should know that it silently installs an additional software called "EpicScale".
