That’s a shame, looks like he ran one of the many companies around at that time that would offer a “free” scan because you’re “at risk” and then harass you to buy it after. For a guy who was involved in some competent software during a time when Microsoft made decent products it’s a shame he left to start that nonsense.
In any case, the insight into Microsoft in the video i still find interesting but yeah fuck that guy. Wouldn’t buy anything from him, even if it has been 20 years.
Unfortunately Dave is an asshole who got sued for shipping scareware (I think). Fuck this guy.
