The old version used to allow us to opt out of the Privacy Monitor assessment / sales pitch.
So it just told me what I already know during a smart scan - my old phone number from about 25 years ago is on the web. That is of no consequence and nothing else. But it seems to think I need to be reminded that there is an “issue”.
So how do we opt out of this “advanced scan” during smart scan on the new version?
Yes, I did mute special offers.
But I am still getting the “advanced” scan in smart scan which is an attempt to scare a person into buying additional features. Even after I say not interested it still makes me look at the offer to buy more:
And even better, every time I open Norton it reminds me of it:
Not interested in seeing that all the time. How do I say NO THANKS, and please stop reminidng me of a non-issue?
We’ve all been asking same for years…
you cannot turn off the promotional offers that appear when you run Smart Scan
last time I ran Smart Scan was 8 days ago
OK, thank you.
Very disappointing - we pay for software which they think allows them to bombard us with promotions to try and scare us into buying more product. Really is time to look into other products.
