I have been a Kaspersky user for many years and I've been really impressed with it. With all the scares about it's safety with its Russian background I rode that out, listening to the guarantees that my account could never be made use of by a foreign power.
But now after a two year deal I am coming up for renewal. I remember your promises, but I also remember the promises that Russia would never invade Ukraine - they didn't seem to be worth that much - and it has really made me question whether, when push comes to shove, any Russian based organisation can be trusted.
I'm not sure what reassurance I want. I have no issue with Kaspersky as a company, but it I don't see that people in Russia as having much choice in these issues - if it's comply or face the consequences for you and your family. In that situation what would I do?
Other products don't seem so good and cost more, but what can one do?
