  • @musher Not, it's obvisiously not from Amazon as roadmr wrote. Where does the Greedystuff come from?

  • @empedokles if you looked through that thread you'd see how to disable all of the canonical app store entries, as well.

Uh, those are not Amazon results but Ubuntu Software Centre results. They are not live online results - but use data obtained by updating the apt database (which you would need to do for installing software anyway). No third party is involved. To disable it, see How to remove the Ubuntu Software Center Suggestions from the Dash.
