I would rather support an American company like Norton than a Russian company. But then again I would also take the word of the FBI's Cyber Chief over that of a Russian businessman. I have had Norton for years without a problem. Amazon has deals on it on a regular basis. I can usually get the 5 PC/Mac version for $20 - 30.
Buy American!
For the OP: Whatever you end up going with be sure to get a backup plan in place ASAP.
Do you realize that most apps and software today come from countries other then the USA.
Also, no way would I even consider installing McAfee or Norton anti-virus programs. Back in the day maybe but no longer. They are both subpar and place far to many hooks into the operating system. No way would I recommend either!
You are of course entitled to your opinion. I have had Norton for a long time and am very satisfied with it. It is highly rated as are others. As I said, I would rather my money go to an American company. If you want to go "Putin" your money in a Russian company, that's your choice.
