Over the last couple of weeks, there’s been a disturbing trend of governments demanding that private tech companies share their source code if they want to do business. Now, the US government is giving the same ultimatum and it’s getting what it wants.

On Sunday, the CEO of security firm Kaspersky Labs, Eugene Kaspersky, told the Associated Press that he’s willing to show the US government his company’s source code. “Anything I can do to prove that we don’t behave maliciously I will do it,” Kaspersky said while insisting that he’s open to testifying before Congress as well.

Avira and NOD32 have a decent track record, as did Kaspersky until now.

No new CIA or NSA viruses etc. will be detected by Kaspersky.

I don't have russiaphobia like the media does, but I never installed Kaspersky simply for the fact it's a russian antivirus program and half the time I catch an attack on my PC it originates from Russia, Ukraine, or China.
