I added a mention of this issue to the lede for this article. Most people will have come to this article for this reason, and it is therefore important to have that early in the article. User:Sceptre reverted that part of my edit (also adding a fuller text in the History section) describing my text as "weasel words". I am going to mostly-undo that deletion. I will leave out "It is mostly known" which seems to be the problematic text. Ijackson ( talk) 15:28, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
However much I disagree with the methods employed by SuperFish - and I really do disagree with them - it is factually incorrect to describe them as rootkits. A root certificate authority and SSL MITM do not mean a rootkit was installed and I can find no evidence to back up such a descrption. As a result I've removed this entry in the reference section.

Everything I've read about this program uses the word Malware. Why don't we? Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 19:41, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
Can there be a semi-protection added to this page? This is an ongoing event with Lenovo and vandalism could likely occur. Thanks Polloloco51 ( talk) 03:07, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
As of now, the official website in the beginning of the page is a dead link. 94.176.102.31 ( talk) 19:20, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

I don't know if anyone cares, but I just spotted superfish.com in godaddy's domain auctions. It's a high four figures, but I'd grab it if I had the cash :/ Ratstail91 ( talk) 16:02, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Since the company name is now JustVisual, shouldn't this page be renamed too (with Superfish redirecting to JustVisual). Kevink707 ( talk) 16:02, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
