Avast is keen on working on further changes to its policy of selling user browser histories to third-party clients. The antivirus vendor is also looking to bring onboard more users into data-sharing, despite the increasing privacy risks. Avast's free antivirus products can actually expose your website clicks to corporations and market research companies. However, Avast claims the data collection is completely legal.
