- dane-pgp 5y agoYeah, presumably computers will come with a "free trial" of a Norton Suite, which, after the trial period expires: 1. will not even pretend to improve your security, 2. will nag you for credit card information to extend the service, and 3. will continue to mine cryptocurrency in the background, to be "safely" stored in Norton's cloud wallet, which Norton will periodically reap "expired" coins from.
