How can you trust DVasive isn't itself malicious?



Isn't DVasive software founded by John McAfee? I'd trust it based purely off his personality. He's kinda crazy (in a good or bad way, depends on who you are), and he'd probably make a lot of noise if he found out his app was malicious.


Thats all is based on if he is somehow still involved with the technical details enough to figure it out. Most likely whoever put it in won't be talking about it to him.


It doesn't require any device privileges, and I can tell it's working just by opening up my camera app or snapchat. Other than that, I don't know.


And that it actually works?
