I've been using Avast for years, but tonight I was searching on spam telephone numbers in Chrome browser using Google search engine, and about 30 seconds into the searching an Avast pop up in the lower right hand side of the screen popped up. I didn't take a screen shot, and I just got a glance before closing, but think it was trying to sell some kind of spam protection. It dawned on me that Avast is collecting information and is trying to sell me what it thinks I need.
So, is Avast collecting information on everything I'm doing online now?
Thanks,
