    Even the on that site promoted Emsisoft isn't needed. Just ignore the advice to use it.

    Well, I thought it was quite an interesting article, thanks. Especially the one about WIFI was a good reminder that HTTPS is quite important. And using 2FA is of course more important than to keep changing passwords.
