    Hi, Sorry for giving 1 star. I’m very disappointed for this annoyed plugin. There is big reasons is, Why this Plugin is Automatically Installed Every Time Without My Permission on every websites. I remove the plugin, also remove the datababse table of this plugin, after few days, this plugin installed again, and it’s contunue. What a shame.
    Just because of I’m using lightspeed server? and Maybe this is happen on other Ligthspeed server users. I don’t care but it’s happning for me. Not really really not fair. WordPress security community should take care of this.

    I can see how this is frustrating.

    But to be clear, LiteSpeed is not installing anything on your site. Your hosting provider is using a tool to install the LiteSpeed Cache plugin across its shared hosting clients.

    The tool is designed to skip sites that already have a cache plugin installed. If this is not working for you, it’s possible that your hosting provider has bypassed this protection in our code. We have received a few similar reports, and have checked our original code. It’s skipping sites as it should.

    There is another way, luckily. If you want to make sure that the plugin is not re-installed the next time your provider runs the tool, you can opt out this way:

    In cPanel, choose the LiteSpeed Web Cache Manager, select LiteSpeed Cache Management > WordPress Cache and “flag” your site. This will make sure your site is skipped next time the mass installation tool is run.

    Or contact your hosting provider and have them flag it for you.

    LiteSpeed cache should not come back once your site is flagged.

    I hope this helps.
