Is Emsisoft really so impressive?

[QUOTE="Bumblebee Uncle, post: 1021645, member: 94584"] Actually this whole notion of Emsisoft being a privacy conscious AV comes from a 2014 report which was published by AV comparatives. Since then, the technology landscape has changed and the products themselves have gone through multiple updates. How can we be so sure that their product architecture has not changed since then and it still works on the same principles as it worked back then with regards to telemetry? When Emsisoft says it is privacy conscious, what is it based on? There has been no analysis done since 2014 by anyone. If I can read another analysis, I will hold back on my criticism. Until then, you just need to trust Emsisoft at their word that they are not in the data collection business. Also, if you go their [URL='https://www.emsisoft.com/en/privacy/#Information-We-Collect-and-Receive']privacy policy[/URL], it is no different from others. It collects quite a lot of data. [/QUOTE]
