Kaspersky

Go to solution Solved by BobVonBob,

There aren't any indications that Kaspersky is unsafe to use, at least not from security professionals. However, Kaspersky would also be well equipped to hide malicious activity, perhaps if under duress from the current regime. That is utterly baseless speculation. But regardless, I'm hesitant to suggest Russian software, especially Russian security software, given current events.

 

If for no other reason, taxes on the money you give to Kaspersky will fund the Russian government. Personally I'm not comfortable with that, but make your own value judgement there.

Is kaspersky still safe in 2023 I am a political podcaster in United Kingdom and I have heard a lot of governments saying it is international security threat. Is is kaspersky still safe?

The one time I tried to use Kaspersky, it toasted my system and had to reinstall windows.
