Leaked documents expose Avast antivirus subsidiary selling web browsing data
Most antivirus software feels sketchy in general (snake oil).The only antivirus I run at the moment is Windows Defender. For me the main reason is that Microsoft actually benefits from a virus free system because it improves Windows as a platform. Antivirus software vendors benefit from viruses spreading around because it improves sales of their products.Also Windows Defender is fairly non-intrusive, it doesn't advertise a sketchy VPN, a sketchy adblock, a sketchy torrent or any other tool that usually anti-virus vendors try to bundle together.
