Millions of Dutch people cheated by antivirus scanner: consumers go to court
Security company Avast has made millions of euros for years by reselling sensitive data of millions of Dutch customers. Civil rights organization Privacy First wants compensation and is therefore taking the Czech antivirus giant to court. This is reported by the ‘Algemeen Dagblad’. “It is bizarre that this company, which stands for online safety, has fooled us so collectively,” says a spokesperson.
