Hi @vitao ! Please allow me a reflection:
In your excellent video (thanks for your effort), you presented Melih's (pathetic) argument, justifying Comodo's mediocrity, by exploiting a false sophism: DETECTION VS PROTECTION. And you (totally correct), in your video confirmed that DETECTION is protection! (congratulations @vitao!). Many other arguments in your video also confirm this reality (including the fact that Comodo's databases are more than 20 years old, with no updates nor upgrades, so there is no DETECTION on Comodo's part).
Therefore, in this context, what the heck is “protection” for Melih?... it's BLOCKING. And why does Melih insist on BLOCKING? Because Comodo was frozen in time, it did not incorporate new technologies in virus/malware DETECTION, it did not update its databases, it did not make upgrades, and the cherry-on-the-top is that Comodo, officially and publicly, abandoned bug fixes (dangerous unfixed bugs that have been accumulating by the hundreds for years, there are 100 bugs recognized by Comodo, and 400 bugs reported by users in lists at the Comodo forum). In such a context of mediocrity, obsolescence and decrepitude, it is logical that Melih can only defend BLOCKING, because the only thing left for Comodo is the Containment feature (everything else is useless deprecated garbage).
And what is the problem with Blocking/Containment? First, since Comodo does not update its database, Containment is not only full of false positives (99% of users can NOT use Comodo Containment), but worse, Containment lets viruses/malware to be executed… and this is not new, this has been going on for years! But second, and more importantly, you only need to look at Windows Defender and the default Windows security settings to understand that BLOCKING is no longer a viable cybersecurity option. In today’s modern times of hyper-connectivity, BLOCKING can no longer be used because it destroys “USABILITY”.
And today, USABILITY is the Holy Grail, because it is required by modern software and hardware, allowing users to have full use and maximum abuse of resources. And that is why the leading cybersecurity companies rely on DETECTION! (to protect users)... these are (many of them free) software with intelligent functions that DETECT viruses/malware before, during or after execution.
And stating that "BLOCKING is the best way to protect a user" is the same as stating that “disconnecting a computer from the internet/electricity... is the safest and most efficient system to block 100% of threats”… ridiculous! DUMB BLOCKING is not protection, DUMB BLOCKING is obsolescence, decrepitude, mediocrity.
It's not me who says that... it's the market share that confirms my words! Comodo hasn't had a market share for decades, so DUMB BLOCKING is failure, mediocrity. And the security systems (many of them free) that have the largest market share are those based on intelligent DETECTION, not DUMB BLOCKING.
So, you are absolutely right when you reject Windows registry patches or hacks, just to hide Comodo's flaws! Even if those patches/hacking could one day be done directly through Comodo's settings, that would also be wrong, because I repeat, Comodo's hardening will never be in DETECTION, it will always be in DUMB BLOCKING... and that kills USABILITY.
Same logic with Windows Defender! There is no point in incorporating patches/hacking that increase DUMB BLOCKING. The right thing to do is always to work on hardening security systems that increase DETECTION.
In short, Comodo should not only never be used because it is abandon-ware, full of dangerous unfixed bugs, no updates or upgrades etc, and Comodo should also never be used because it has had (and still has) serious Firewall and Containment flaws for years, but the main reason why Comodo should never be used is because Comodo is based on DUMB BLOCKING... and regardless of whether that DUMB BLOCKING is as strong as Herakles, DUMB BLOCKING always kills USABILITY. Period!
Comodo fanatics are free to use sh@t. But that doesn't mean Comodo should be promoted to all users. You @vitao have a YouTube Channel, and I know you have the morality and responsibility to differentiate between your personal opinions, and those opinions that affect the majority of users... who should be alerted and informed about the dangers, lies and fake myths of Comodo.

You are spot on "D" - Comodo, the reigning champion of cybersecurity!
