Criticisms Pricing Adobe has been criticized for its pricing practices, with retail prices being up to twice as much in non-US countries. As pointed out by many, it is significantly cheaper to pay for a return airfare ticket to the United States and purchase one particular collection of Adobe's software there than to buy it locally in Australia. After Adobe revealed the pricing for the Creative Suite 3 Master Collection, which was £1,000 higher for European customers, a petition to protest over 'unfair pricing' was published and signed by 10,000 users.

Adobe's and programs were listed on 'The 10 most hated programs of all time' article. Security Hackers have exploited vulnerabilities in Adobe programs, such as Adobe Reader, to gain unauthorized access to computers. Adobe's Flash Player has also been criticized for, among other things, suffering from performance, memory usage and security problems (see ). A report by security researchers from criticized Adobe for producing the products having top 10 security vulnerabilities. Observers noted that Adobe was spying on its customers by including in the Creative Suite 3 software and quietly sending user data to a firm named. When users became aware, Adobe explained what the suspicious software did and admitted that they: 'could and should do a better job taking security concerns into account'.

When a security flaw was later discovered in Photoshop CS5, Adobe sparked outrage by saying it would leave the flaw unpatched, so anyone who wanted to use the software securely would have to pay for an upgrade. Following a fierce backlash Adobe decided to provide the software patch. Adobe has been criticized for pushing unwanted software including third-party browser toolbars and free virus scanners, usually as part of the update process, and for pushing a third-party program designed to scare users into paying for unneeded system repairs.

Customer data breach On October 3, 2013, the company initially revealed that 2.9 million customers' sensitive and personal data was stolen in security breach which included encrypted credit card information. Adobe later admitted that 38 million active users have been affected and the attackers obtained access to their IDs and encrypted passwords, as well as to many inactive Adobe accounts. The company did not make it clear if all the personal information was encrypted, such as email addresses and physical addresses, though in 44 states require this information to be encrypted. A 3.8 GB file stolen from Adobe and containing 152 million usernames, reversibly encrypted passwords and unencrypted password hints was posted on AnonNews.org., a password security firm, said that Adobe failed to use best practices for securing the passwords and has not them. Another security firm, showed that Adobe used a weak encryption method permitting the recovery of a lot of information with very little effort.

According to expert Simon Bain, Adobe has failed its customers and ‘should hang their heads in shame’. Many of the credit cards were tied to the software-by-subscription service. Adobe offered its affected US customers a free membership in a credit monitoring service, but no similar arrangements have been made for non-US customers. When a occurs in the US, penalties depend on the state where the victim resides, not where the company is based. After stealing the customers' data, cyber-thieves also accessed Adobe's repository, likely in mid-August 2013. Because acquired copies of the source code of Adobe products, they could find and exploit any potential weaknesses in its security, computer experts warned.

Adobe also announced that hackers stole parts of the source code of, which according to commentators could allow programmers to copy its engineering techniques and would make it easier to pirate Adobe's expensive products. Published on a server of a Russian-speaking, the 'disclosure of encryption algorithms, other security schemes, and software vulnerabilities can be used to bypass protections for individual and corporate data' and may have opened the gateway to new generation. Hackers already used ColdFusion exploits to make off with usernames and encrypted passwords of 's customers, which has been tied to the Adobe security breach.

They also used a ColdFusion exploit to breach Washington state court and expose up to 160,000 Social Security numbers. See also: Anti-competitive practices Adobe acquired Aldus Corp. In 1994, a software vendor that sold FreeHand, a competing product. Was direct competition to, Adobe's flagship vector-graphics editor. The intervened and forced Adobe to sell FreeHand back to Altsys, and also banned Adobe from buying back FreeHand or any similar program for the next 10 years (1994-2004). Altsys was then bought by, which released versions 5 to 11.

When Adobe acquired Macromedia in December 2005, it stalled development of in 2007, effectively rendering it obsolete. With FreeHand and Illustrator, Adobe controlled the only two products that compete in the professional illustration program market for Macintosh operating systems. In 2011, a group of 5,000 Freehand graphic designers convened under the banner Free Freehand, and filed a civil antitrust complaint in the US District Court for the Northern District of California against Adobe. The suit alleged that Adobe has violated federal and state antitrust laws by abusing its dominant position in the professional vector graphic illustration software market and that Adobe has engaged in a series of exclusionary and anti-competitive acts and strategies designed to kill FreeHand, the dominant competitor to Adobe’s Illustrator software product, instead of competing on the basis of product merit according to the principals of free market capitalism. Adobe had no response to the claims and the lawsuit was eventually settled. The FreeHand community believes Adobe should release the product to an open-source community if it cannot update it internally. As of 2010, on its FreeHand product page Adobe stated 'While we recognize FreeHand has a loyal customer base, we encourage users to migrate to the new Adobe Illustrator CS4 software which supports both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs and Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista.'

As of 2016, the Freehand page no longer exists and simply redirects to the Illustrator page. Adobe's software FTP server still contains a directory for FreeHand, but it is empty. See also.
