Lenovo has made headlines over Superfish. If you haven't heard about it see the links below:

An interesting point to note here is that the electronic communications between the user than online websites was technically illegally intercepted without either party's knowledge.

Has Lenovo broken any South African laws?

If they have, who in South Africa should take legal action?
