[QUOTE="brigantes, post: 893911, member: 88084"] [LIST] [*]Is antivirus (Microsoft Defender and other native Microsoft security protections) needed in 2020 ? Yes [*]Is 3rd party security software needed in 2020 ? No [*]At best, security software are nothing more than a highly imperfect insurance policy. [*]The users that come running with an infection typically self-sabotaged themselves either out of sheer ignorance or willfulness. [/LIST] [LIST] [*]The year is 2020. [*]1/3 of the world inhabitants still live in the mud. [*]At least 1/4 of the world inhabitants still live without electricity and/or clean accessible water. [*]There are still witch doctors in the world. [*]Voodoo spells, snake oil, trinket medicine and mutilation medicine remain rampant throughout the world. [*]"Developed" and up and coming societies do not teach the basics of our digital society to prepare their populations for the era. [*]Digital device usage does not equate to knowledge nor understanding. [*]In the world today there is probably in-excess of 100 TB of digital storage devoted only to "What is best AV ?" [*]Stupidity is the first world pandemic; into the world came humans and they brought stupidity with them... and the smart people asked for millennia "What are we to do ?" [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
