    Anybody who doesn't want to report his online activities to the American government (and God knows to whom else) should have a look at this very good list of alternatives to "spying software":

    Obviously, it will be very hard to follow all recommendations (mostly thinking of the OS), but some are surely worth considering.

    Antivirus can detect trojans, FB, Google and other-servers have weak antivirus software or just allow that trojan to work on their servers
    some US spy-trojans already killed by Kaspersky antivirus

    Anyone here ever heard of someone who was cought by the NSA, the german BKA, the russian FSB or any other secret service because of using non paid software or because of posting something wierd on facebook? I think they have better things to do than observing little criminals like we are! Dont be so paranoid and stay cool!

    No, they can't. If you have Kaspersky. They are Russians :)

    Second thing, very important. Don't be so paranoid guys. I know everyone should respect our privacy. But people themselves agree with it. By giving personal and private data to FB, G+ etc. I mean dafuq, why people are so stupid, and they trust a man named Zuckerberg. People don't know him personally. And they share with him photos, phone numbers, friends, kids, credit cards, where they live, what they just ate, etc. WHY ?

    I don't remember if it was on this site or somewhere else but I definitely saw it before. Though this is helpful I would like to remind people that putting a band-aid on a serious problem will eventually get us nowhere. It has recently come to light that this isn't limited to 9 companies but actually it's at least 1,000. It is imperative that this problem be dealt with at the source. *yes*

    I dont know if you are doing..but using cracked software is also illegal! :) btw. I dont care if they are stealing things from my facebook account or from somewhere else. I know what kind of information to share online and which better should stay offline since I used the internet. I think everone who ever thought information in the internet are protected by privacy law is a very naive person! And even my usage of pages like audioz or others of this category dont bring me sleepness nights as I never heard of somebody who has been inprisioned because of this! As I already wrote before..secret services have better things to do. Dont get me wrong..I also dont approve this. But now this is official will not make me change my online behaviour!

    The fact they are russians only leads me to the question how much NSA have to pay. Like everywhere also Anti-Virus-Companies are still companies..they dont act morally..they act economically!

    Yeah because there's no corruption or spying going on in Russia. :rofl:
    The last critic of the government was found dead with signs of being tortured and another is currently fighting it out in court.
