[QUOTE="LDogg, post: 881384, member: 72150"] Facts: some companies need to sell your data to 3rd parties for profit. F-Secure probably does it. Data is the new oil. You have to think, Privacy or Security. I think I would prefer the latter. Even installing an extension for a web browser probably sells your data. Let's all come off the internet, because data is going everywhere..... Avast is still a good product and you can turn off the settings for the data selling or use a Firewall to block packets going to a specific Avast IP. Simples. Don't be so special about it. ~LDogg [/QUOTE]
