• Virus Protection

  Also, while anti-virus software is useful on computers, I would recommend not using them if you can as they can be very privacy invasive. Windows already has an AV program built-in which is actually decent now, and MacOS has three layers of protection to protect your Mac from malware. But if you really do want one, I'd recommend Malwarebytes or Sophos Home. Malwarebytes has a free version but that is only an... Source: 11 months ago

• MacBook laptop model (a2338)

  Apple has a series of anti-malware systems XProtect, GateKeeper, and Notarization built into MacBooks to prevent unauthorized access to the camera and microphone. If you feel that’s not enough and you want to add extra protection, install Sophos Home which will warn you each time the camera is accessed and add if you want to allow the access.

• “Activation code is invalid for this region” Kaspersky Free AV

  Assuming you've downloaded the correct US software, found here, create a new Kaspersky account, with a different e-mail, install Kaspersky Free, and try activation again. Source: 9 months ago

• Should I use Malwarebytes Premium or stick with Windows Defender?

  I would use Bitdefender Free or Kaspersky Free over Windows Defender and Malwarebytes. The free versions of either of these two are more than enough for a personal computer. Defender's local AI/ML engines are unreliable and rely on cloud look ups, heavily dependent on signatures and updates, and can be easily bypassed if you end up running the wrong thing as an admin or have a vulnerability that lets a...
