@garethweston91,
You are certainly entitled to your opinion. Hopefully, you have the same respect for those of us that don’t share your opinion.
Does avast! need to monitor everything you do ??? Certainly, how else can it block the malicious stuff you run into.
You seem to have forgotten that what avast! has access too is a lot less than what the NSA can gather.
Your computer, your decision. My computer, my decision is to keep avast! :slight_smile:
