Best Buy Stops Selling Kaspersky Security Software (startribune.com)
swschrad writes: Call it a stampede, call it a business decision, but Best Buy has pulled Kaspersky internet security software from its shelves and website. Some in the U.S. government suspect Russian ties make it a suspicious product. Since all major security companies have links with each other and with government security agencies, sharing threat evidence to find counters, Kaspersky's defense seems valid. But if you want it, be prepared to buy it off their own website. Best Buy will give Kaspersky software purchasers 45 days to exchange it for free for another product if they want. Additionally, customers can also uninstall it themselves or have a Geek Squad agent do it for free within that time window.
Today Walmart pulled all bottles of Russian dressing from their shelves.
Nytimes? That's your *counterpoint*? To *other than propaganda*?
Well, it's endorsed by the NSA.... by saying they don't like it.
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
