A Youtube Member Says That Microsoft Makes Viruses So That They Buy A New PC Or Get An New Anti Virus.
I Have Read Your book But It Says No.
I Tried To Convince Him That Microsoft Does Not Do That.
Do You Have An Good Explanation For Him?
I don’t believe it. Viruses have been very harmful to Microsoft’s reputation. Countless users have suffered from poor performance, crashes, reboots, destroyed data, stolen data, and identity theft on account of viruses and other malware.
The YouTube member’s claim would be like Ford (or any other automobile manufacturer) deliberately causing accidents so that customers would have to purchase new cars.
It just doesn’t make sense.
