[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 877129, member: 83059"] I think it's still wise (pun intended) to separate objective testing of the features from whether or not we'd recommend it to be used. For example, many might say the exact same thing about Kaspersky but replace Chinese with Russian. Otherwise might have distrusted Avast forever based off what recently happened with their free edition. Regardless of whether we'd personally trust using their software, I think it's still worthwhile to test and assess their protective abilities. The problem with trying to debate the privacy/trust aspect is that the truth is something we might never be able to uncover. None of us work for spy agencies or otherwise have the cold facts for proving or disproving those kinds of allegations. It just turns into unproductive and borderline xenophobic statements about whether or not we trust a foreign entity. [/QUOTE]
