They're distributing LibreOffice now too, presumably without bothering to ask for the permission of the actual developers.

They technically don't need permission to perform the redistribution, seeing as LibreOffice is FOSS and distribution of software is permitted.

However, they do need permission to claim to be representatives of the LibreOffice developers.

And whether they need permission or not, bundling malware into the installer is evil.
