Kaspersky has faced controversy over allegations that it has engaged with the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB)—ties which the company has actively denied. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security banned Kaspersky products from all government departments on September 13, 2017. In October 2017, subsequent reports alleged that hackers working for the Russian government stole confidential data from the home computer of an American National Security Agency contractor via Kaspersky antivirus software. Kaspersky denied the allegations, reporting that the software had detected Equation Group malware samples which it uploaded to its servers for analysis in its normal course of operation.[13] The company has since announced commitments to increased accountability, such as soliciting independent reviews and verification of its software’s source code, and announcing that it would migrate some of its core infrastructure for foreign customers from Russia to Switzerland. In November 2020, Kaspersky finished relocating the data of its customers from Russia to Switzerland.[14][15] The company has also opened multiple transparency centers in Switzerland, Brazil, Canada, Spain and Malaysia which allow state agencies, government experts and regulators to review its source code.[16][17]
I agree and I also support the “common sense is the best av” argument, but for less tech savy people and workplaces I do think it’s necessary to have a last hope safety net against malware
I was curious whether some scandal about data being sent to russian govt had emerged after the war, but apparently things are as they used to be.
Mind you, AVs have a scary control over your system, and I totally respect not wanting to use one headquartered in Russia (and since the government security agencies have ties within those companies even in the “free world” (lmao) it’s safe to assume Russian govt has them inside Kaspersky too).
With that being said, kaspersky is actually a multinational corporation present in many areas of the world, I wonder how much influence Moscow actuallt has over them.

This is so wholesome
Capybara seems a good friend
Far from me to make anyone insecure about things that can’t be changed. The duck doctor has beautiful human hands and I couldn’t be happier about it
The human hands I can’t
I’m looking exactly for one such thing, but in europe. We don’t have walmarts and shipping costs are too high
Not really feeling like thinkering lately… Thanks for the suggestions, I wanted to avoid GAFAM/Huawei but I guess there is no escaping it… I’ll buy it second hand and slap an adblocker on it
Shit my bad, I meant an android tv dongle with remote, not a whole tv
I’m sorry, what do you mean by size?
Can someone recommend me a cheap 1080p android tv with app sideloading available? I’ve been looking for options in europe but they seem to cost 60€+
Edit: android tv DONGLE, not a whole tv
I’ve watched a few comparison videos, and the performance gains are negligible when compared to other common distros, so that’s definitely not the point in installing it.
The good part about nobara is the set of tools that come preinstalled and the wecome program which lets you update the system, the drivers and the codecs.
Nothing you couldn’t replicate in a few minutes on another distro of course
Would you mind to explain why? I have yet to try it, but the concept seems nice: predisposing a set of tools useful for linux gamers/creators for those who are not technical
Printing on Linux has been seamless for me so far, unlike windows and macos
