Quality old school reference.

Omg I tried to google that to see how old it was and there are so many NEW lifelock data breaches! I can’t even find that original shitshow.

I legit feel really bad for all the people who got scammed by major companies “anti-“ programs.. They don’t know better and our laws should be so much more robust.

I’m not sure about how LifeLock operated in the past, but the second they became associated with Norton they became irrelevant. Norton has yet to produce a worthwhile product in any category. At best their services are useless and at worst actively harmful to consumers.

Merging with Norton was a lateral move, if that helps. And I agree with everything you said about Norton.

Wait did that dude end up getting hacked? Don’t remember that.

Idk about hacked but his identity was stolen at least 13 times as of 2018, and the company was fined for deceptive advertising practices and basically running a scam.
