On that matter, why is Norton antivirus so popular? I don’t remember being prompted to install one when installing Windows, yet I’ve seen a lot of people with it.
Back in the day, Norton actually made some useful tools. They’ve been coasting on that 90s reputation for decades, though. It’s all unnecessary bloatware now.
Back in the day, you were pushed hard to either put McAfee or Norton on your computer when you bought one from Dell, Compaq, etc. A lot of older people still think you need to do that so it’s still pretty popular.
I always used kaspersky which I stupidly downloaded from a torrent lol. Guess it worked? I’ll never know tho.
strange, most IT professionals will tell you the only thing you need is Windows Defender and an ability to think before clicking strange download buttons
Not strange, most executives will sign a deal where another company gives them money for every laptop they sell with that company’s product preinstalled.
