Well, resistance is futile 😁, as much as they try to put boulders in our way. Local admin rights is all it takes. Of course some "endpoint security" solutions are more obnoxious than others, but I haven't found a single one I wasn't able to defeat as long as I was able to obtain local admin rights and thereby impersonate SYSTEM 😉

Your question was flagged as being out of scope by a community user, a community moderator agreed with that flag, and as a result your question was closed. All that means is the community thought the question was out of scope. As one of those community users, I would agree with the assessment, your question was out of scope. | |

| Nov 2, 2020 at 9:56 | comment | added | thedrs | So you are saying that because AV software are the "good guys" we should never try to bypass them or ask questions about it even when they hog our machines. But when MS windows transmit a lot of user data back to their servers for bettering their software or have services that slow our machines, we should discuss ways to bypass this because MS aren't considered "good guys" ? superuser mods will decide which s/w can be questioned and bypassed and which we should not ? | |
