This is an older thread with a LOT of comments to give you food for thought

https://slickdeals.net/f/18041256-norton-360-platinum-2025-antivirus-software-for-20-devices-with-auto-renewal-3-months-free-includes-vpn-pc-cloud-backup-dark-web-monitoring-download-21-09?src=SDSearchv3&attrsrc=Thread%3AExpired%3ATrue%7CSearch%3AType%3Anormal%7CSearch%3ASort%3Arelevance%7CSearch%3AHideExpired%3Afalse&page=1#commentsHeader

worth noting the price often drops down to $35 so you should only grab this if you need Norton right now... and for pete's sake remove your credit card info from your norton account after activating it AND turn off auto renew if you end up buying this.

Do you even need Norton or is Windows Defender good enough? (edit, Windows Defender is free and automatically included in both Win 10 and Win 11)... See

https://www.pcworld.com/article/2...eople.html

There's a quote from the article that I think rings true

"You still need to smart, careful, and aware by:

Not visiting shady websites
Not downloading unsolicited files
Not clicking links in emails or social media messages

If you trust that you're good enough to keep yourself safe, and if you don't mind shouldering the responsibility of maintaining good cybersecurity practices, then Windows Security should be enough.

But if you have frequent lapses in judgment, if you're anxious about falling prey to malware or cybercriminals, or if you need additional features not included in Windows Security, then consider a paid antivirus suite."

I'll be the first one to admit I'm personally paranoid as all heck Stick Out Tongue ... if say a visiting family member who knows nothing about the basics of security shows up and does something not smart on one of our PC's I view it as something that could be a problem.

I will say that if you buy this while it's pretty cheap compared to other security software (office depot may have a mcafee "unlimited devices for under $15 for one year" deal too this coming Black Friday as they have on numerous other Black Fridays in years past) Norton can and will annoy you by constantly suggesting you buy this or that Norton product even if you turn on the "hey don't market me option" (it just means they market you somewhat less Stick Out Tongue ) .. on the other hand Windows 11 is notorious for doing this too (though you can cut down on it considerably by making the right adjustments in Windows 11 settings).

Also if you don't need it right away consider setting up a camelcamelcamel price watch.. it's been known to drop low as $21 as mentioned in the older slickdeals thread I linked above.

One last thing.. no one in their right mind would pay $129.99 for Norton for 20 devices even for 15 months Stick Out Tongue ... amazon just lists that as the "normal retail price" along with other retailers (staples for example).
