The U.S. Department of Commerce banned Russian company Kaspersky from selling its anti-virus software and other cybersecurity products in the country after determining that the firm posed an “undue or unacceptable risk to national security.”

“Kaspersky will generally no longer be able to, among other activities, sell its software within the United States or provide updates to software already in use,” the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) said in a June 20 press release. . .

Ii used to buy antivirus software including Kaspersky about 15/20 years ago when I first started using the internet (yes I was a late starter) Then I played online pc games with a number of people around the world and I was taught how to clean my pc, defrag, get into temp files ect. (I still have no clue) Now I run my computers with no anti-malware on it, complete naked and never get malware anymore. Just don't click on links that you ain't sure about. Also the malware is made by the anti- malware guys anyway.

What's next? Banning vodka? No more Rachmaninoff, Mussorgsky, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky?
