    Nah let admins admin. It would piss me off to have chosen a product just to have Microsoft effectively veto my decision as the machine owner.

    If companies are going to buy stuff that crashes, let em. Don’t ask Microsoft to hand hold.

      I honestly can’t think of any other way to force shitty antivirus programs to improve. Every boomer I know uses Norton or McAfee and refuses to even hear about other options.

      Kaspersky is pretty good at protecting the average user from scammers, because they blacklisted remote desktop programs in their malware database, and now that’s being banned within the US.

      The US government’s definition of “compliant” when it comes to something like that will completely cancel out anything good that comes from using Kaspersky, so it’s never going to be un-banned and also be worth using
