And that article is a lie. LW did have adware in their program up to version 3.x which was a long time ago. But no other versions have, so their claims that the recent versions do is purely a marketing lie. See what they are really trying to sell you. These are con-people. And beware of con-versions of any program. There's many a spyware utility program out there that costs lots of money but has spyware itself & doesn't work properly & is poorly designed. There's also scam versions of the free programs discussed above but the marketers charge money for it. And may also have done cosmetic changes to it, meaning it's less effective & is just a marketing tool for the company that offered their stolen & adjusted version of it.
