First time I’ve heard someone say Malwarebytes sucks. Is this more of a “Recent update makes it bad” thing or “The company behind this software is horrible”? Personally I’ve never had a problem with them.
They don’t give a damn about privacy, if I’m not mistaken were once caught distributing “fake” malware to test their software, and had an episode where their database got invaded and they didn’t even bother with a simple “sorry about that”. Also, their service model has some stinky dark design patterns.
The future:
“Malwarebytes has flagged your entire operating system as potential malware”
Lol… :/
…pay 9.99 to have us do nothing
Lol. They are a shit company. (Microsoft & Malwarebytes)

The company behind the software has always been a piece of shit, but their detection rate (true positives) is really good.
Okay so is anyone going to elaborate, or…?

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it!
Ditto. Happy Malwarebytes customer here. Would be very interested to hear the issue.
Edit: disregard. Was raging about AVG.
No worries, panic over! Unless someone else knows something else…
They develope proprietary solutions which makes them a no go in my book
