    FAKE! Obviously no self-respecting Apple iPhone user would own a Windows PC. Gotta keep it all in that walled garden, baby!

      It’s always cancer.
      Sore throat - cancer.
      Back ache - cancer.
      Tiredness, cough, loss of taste and/or smell - maybe COVID. But also, cancer.

    No wait, you’re telling me that mega-corporations don’t care about me getting good products and having sole ownership of my personal data?

    B-but [sponsored tech-geek blog], [generic gaming-news outlet] and [irrelevant apple shill] only ever told me so! Are you implying they lie to me?

    Realtalk I only use cracked win11 pro workstation and iPhone because of work, every telemetry possible disabled (god bless the EU).

      Back in the day, Norton actually made some useful tools. They’ve been coasting on that 90s reputation for decades, though. It’s all unnecessary bloatware now.

        There’s still contracts that force anti-virus on servers and desktops so that may be their other source of revenue
