Hi, i want to ask you something to know your opinion. Look i remember when i start to worring about my security. My firts functional an favorite antivirus was bullguard because have remote control support for free. They install the av for you and include help you to remove threats whitouth ask $$. Then they ask for $$ for those services. I move to GDATa but they comes too more expensive and not give promotions or student discount (the firts gdata student discounts was very crazy 3 years licences for 3 pcs for 10 usd). Then i move to avast but the ugly interface and inconsistence in desing make me to move on. I try to move to norton free product but they remove the "free". Avira downgraded they "free product" and not update in a few hours, in comparision whith pro version. Now i see emsisoft not have renewal discounts. I have a licence what i won from emsi because i find a failure in their licence system and report it to developers and reward me whith five years licence. I buy too many licences and add to my account to extend my licence and have a eigth years licence ( now i have 1500 days licence) ok i am happy but no renewal discount dissapoint me. For me more than 10 usd yearly is too much money to expend in security (and i like to buy). .
In that situation one thing to make me angry is the companies downgrade products, make more expensive renew or remove free products, for me this is not ethical. I buy yearly a emsi licence include if i do not need to contribute to they project, but whitouth renewal discount i do not do anymore.
What if AV company says "now my product cost five times more expensive than a year ago"? Can we trust in this companies.
What if kaspersky remove ksc free or if avast make more expensive ?
Do you think this is ethical?
For me not
