I would not recommend that people use Kaspersky. I would not recommend any antivirus for that matter. The antivirus industry is a scam to begin with. Operating System should be designed in a way that protects itself from viruses, not require additional software.
There's no piece of software that you can install on Microsoft Windows that will protect you from US government surveillance. Installing Kasperspky won't protect you from the NSA. lol
The increasing number of sanctions that the US is placing on countries around the world is showing that the US is losing it's grasp on power.
win10 antivirus is working fine-ish, outside of not liking its activator and keygens
I'm using Kaspersky on my family's computers specifically because the US was mad at them for finding NSA spyware. Now I'm no longer allowed to get updates for the software I paid for. Fuck this and fuck Biden.
All governments spy. My philosophy is that as long as you’re not using my shit as a botnet or miner, i prefer foreign governments stealing my data because they won’t give a shit if i say something about america. Of course, the US can just enact a blanket ban and criminalization of privacy breaches for all corporations, but instead we just keep playing this dumb piecemeal game every time the enemy annoys thr US.
BREAKING: Buy Kaspersky Anti-Virus! Even the Yanks are scared of their power!
They might spy on you, that's our job

And there it is. I was looking to switch to their VPN... Maybe I can download it via a VPN?
They should ban the other antivirus programs too so it's a start.
I only use the Burger King online ordering app as my antivirus software, because I am a PATRIOT.
