Hmmm …
Radio Four’s Today programme has just told me UK’s intelligence chiefs have against using anti-virus software.
To be specific, against using anti-virus software from Kaspersky Labs.
There are worries the company has too many links to the Kremlin: or, at least, to it’s intelligence agency.
I couldn’t tell you.
I AM surprised about the fuss being made about it.
I have a personal belief: that, while the FBI, and other law enforcement bodies are concerned about the encryption involved with apps like WhatsApp, and Apple’s Messages, US intelligence agencies will have equally friendly relationships with various US software makers.
And bagging whatever help, information and cooperation they can.
In other words, doing the exact same thing.
Let’s face it: you’re reading this in a version of Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer, Edge or Firefox.
All bits of US software.
