McAfee
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Cons
- get rid of McAfee/Norton (both are 100% s--t).
- uninstall scareware antivirus if installed (not windows defender) like McAfee.
- the auto-installed app spams ads on every startup, mostly McAffee
- delete all the bloatware like mcafee and others
- A McAffee rep came to our offices one day. He offered free home licenses to us devs. We all instantly and simultaneously refused like he offered us a touch of the bubonic plague.

How is McAfee still in business? Same way viruses are. Taking advantage of people.

Uninstall mcafee, teams,to do,other apps you won't need
Then I had to uninstall McAfee and turn off a bunch of notifications and all the distracting widgets.
McAfee is infamously garbage.
