Yeah, I do @musllibc, FOSS & infosec stuff. But now is not the time for a mostly-/only-tech Twitter feed.

      Look, I know that you don't have a very high opinion of the developers of AV software - but we aren't exactly idiots, OK? Some of us have been at this stuff probably for longer than you've been alive.

      Trust me - if there's a nasty trick, we've probably seen it already. If there was a clever way to do something - we're either using it already, or we've tried it in the past and saw that it doesn't work.

      For our products to be used, there is one thing of paramount importance - and, sadly, that's not the ability to detect malware (although it is that for me). The most important thing is to cause minimum disruption most of the time.

      Because if we don't achieve this, nobody uses our product, no matter how good it is at detecting malware. So, we use every trick in the book to make user we're fast on a clean system - because that's usually how our products are used.

      On an infected system, or when there are reasons to be suspicious, we can afford to be slow - the user will wait. But on a clean system we MUST be fast. And we do everything possible to achieve this. We use every trick in the book, and some others besides.

      So, if you have a "clever" idea how we can be faster - it's either not very clever, or we've already tried it in the past and it doesn't work, or we're already using it.

      I don’t know about other people, but I try not to assume that in five minutes of thinking I can do better than multiple people have done in *decades*.

      I don't. It's an area of interest for me for something like almost 3 decades. And I consider all the existing solutions crap, at best a necessary evil to deal with Windows' awfulness.

      If you consider the existing solutions crap, go ahead and make your own. Good luck with that, you're gonna need it.

      That's the problem - I don't care for Windows enough to want to make the UX non-awful. I just want to be nowhere near it. Even caring for others/"the masses" isn't motive anymore because the masses can just use iOS.

      Nowadays Windows is pretty much just people using it by choice, and businesses/workplace use.

          So it’s flawed software that you could do better, and you think there’s a huge market from corporations, but you haven’t gotten around to proving it for 30 years? Sure thing, friend.

          Perhaps you misunderstood "area of interest". I have no interest in working with or writing software for Windows.
