[QUOTE="bazang, post: 1094095, member: 114717"] You can check this post from 2018, but it looks like TH is fully supporting Webroot. IIRC he was angry because he wanted his rules to apply to a situation that he caused on the Webroot community - which he, Baldrik, and the Webroot Thug mob were doing for years - but was told that the forum belonged to Webroot and not to him. He got angry and left. I bet he was not gone for more than a month or two. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/webroot-secureanywhere-discussion-update-thread.364655/page-142#post-2735836[/URL] He actually did programming for them at one point IIRC. With the product it was advertised as having a firewall but then the firewall controls in the product were "greyed out." TH, Baldrick and the usual group of Webroot Thugs gave all kinds of reasons why it was so. I filed complaints with the Colorado State Attorney General's Office and The Federal Trade Commission against Webroot for false advertising - and bazang! - all of sudden it got "fixed" = the controls were enabled. I think he is the one that made "the fix." The Webroot fanbois thug mob chimpout on the Webroot Community about those firewall controls was something else. [USER=24236]@Muddy7[/USER] The reason Webroot discussions are not active here at MT is largely the result of TH's, Baldrick's, and others' behaviors. The fact that Webroot hides its community from public view, the fact that "publicly posted bug reports are not allowed," the fact that "testing results" are not allowed, etc, etc, etc - it is all for one purpose and one purpose only - to control the discussion (censor what is not liked) and thereby control the narrative of the product.
