[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 878470, member: 83059"] I think this is hard to hide. There are security researchers much smarter than me looking at all of this software. They can compromise the machine they’re installed on but it’s very hard for them to hide from a firewall appliance or something inspecting the network traffic. more importantly if they steal data like that, they would be in violation of a lot of laws in countries where they conduct business, and I don’t personally believe they can afford to do that. This would be the kind of attack reserved for cases like how the CIA strongarmed Edward Snowden’s email provider. If you aren’t that important to Kaspersky or Russia, in my opinion they will not risk getting caught stealing your data. [/QUOTE]
