I initially only installed "Comodo Firewall" but for some reason they also installed a "Comodo Dragon Browser", which I did not consent to. I always choose the "advanced" installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won't be able to uninstall the software..

In the early 2000's Commodo was actually a reputable consumer-grade firewall vendor. Like all security software vendors, they eventually became that which they fought against.

Huh. TIL. So why did they fade away?

Because built in security tools in Windows are much better and free. And enabled by default. Installing 3rd party tools is dumb at the very least.

Especially free ones that aren't FOSS... 😂
