Norton bought Avast so technically they run differently, i don't do highly illegal activities so i don't really need to cover my tracks from government but hackers. I feel like Norton wouldn't allow avast staff (former to tarnish it's reputation) I feel like the Norton buy out was a way for Avast to fully rescue itself. AVG is the only product from Gen digital i use due it's no ADS and clear cut GUI.
meanwhile, I just uninstalled & canceled Norton subscription for one of my VM. Doubt I will use any Gen digital av in foreseeable future. just me. 👎

Norton is horrible you will have a better experience with avg.
Norton is now completely bloatware. Not to mention the interface and annoying popups that are completely like fake antiviruses. I used AVG for 8 years , I think it was just before bought from Avast, I'm thinking of trying it when my Eset license ends.

Is AVG any different from Avast nowadays? Seems to me it is just a skin, the product is exactly the same.

Ps: I like Avast/AVG, I am using it right now on my gaming notebook.
