I have had subscriptions to both Norton and LifeLock Ultimate for years.
The companies merged and I initially had lots of trouble getting my accounts merged. It took over a year, believe it or not.
So, here I am, with comprehensive ID theft protection and, yet, I continue to receive ads and popups sliding in from the right of my screen telling me I should buy protection I already have with LifeLock.
It's really annoying, especially when I'm sharing a screen during a Zoom session.
What's the matter with this company??????!!!!!
And, when I open Norton 360, I get ads to subscribe to protection I'm already getting with LifeLock and this BS ad to turn my PC's idle time into cash.
How do I turn these annoyances off?
