Norton Says Renew now or “Beg for Mercy”

Instead of Symantec’s Norton Anti-Virus removing all adware and keeping your PC safe, the pop-up for when the subscription expires says “Maybe things will be ok for a while longer, Then again, maybe cybercriminals are about to clean out your bank account. The choice is yours: Protect yourself now or beg for mercy.” Sounds more like malware extortion to me.
