Abstractly speaking, it is always a vendor problem. If Windows was perfect you would not need an AV. Now jump back to reality and we realise that security is about multiple levels of security and never rely on a single one.
Look, homeopathy is like seat belts on a modern car. Homeopathy is a first line of defense, it's better than no medicine at all.

Is it? Actually, let's not bring an argument about homeopathy into this : )

I replaced the word "antivirus" with "homeopathy" and repeated his tweet back to him. It's common for antivirus industry to want to compare their products with real security products, like helmets and seat belts. In reality, it's more like homeopathy and crystals.

Yes, AV is outdated, but it can save the grandma from downloading ransomware in a spam email and some poor schmuck relative explaining to her her files have been farked. APT groups, not so much.

LOL before someone takes my words and replaces it with homeopathy, I meant APT groups against organizations and not grandmothers

I agree this will open a can of unneeded worms.:) Homeopathy is not a subject you and I have expertise in. However, what I meant by my seat belt analogy is that its better to drive with them than not, especially if your car doesn't have the other technologies to save your ass.
