EA & Adware/Spyware in the Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adware

I'm just pointing out EA being mentioned, showing this trend of major corporations becoming players in the use of these programs for marketing purposes.

Etc. Etc. ;)

You didn't author those additions did ya? 8)

Might as well point out they'll probably be removed, or if you're lucky repositioned as a minor example point lower on in the article, but definitely not as a paragraph at the top of each article. By wikipedia standards it shouldn't be there, and they're pretty strict about such things.
