your antivirus is arguably a malware itself. you don't need to give a 3rd party your entire internet browsing content to have a secure computer.


Why would that be? Did they try to sell you some silly con snake-oil?

Or is it just that AVAST is aghast because some site is trying to spread some common sense? (against silicon snake-oil maybe?)

Do you think you should blindly trust AVAST?

Maybe it's just their servers suffering from some hiccups, causing their clients to have burps?

This happened before to all of those applications from any vendor, including that built-in microsoft-thing.

Multiple times.

Maybe it's just because it's using too many technical terms about cryptology, in unusual ways.

Must be a bad h4xx0r then!

Bang! Automagically blacklisted by some black-box.

Don't be a cargo-culting fashion victim.
