Yep. I remember some of my coworkers used to laugh at me saying "What bloatware? I don't have any, nor the ads. We've used the same images, so it must've been something you've done yourself".

Turns out that's because I chose en/us during installation process and our region didn't have preinstall deals... yet. Now, they too can enjoy self-installing candy crush and literal KGB spyware.
