Could you please clarify who these people are — whether they are independent security experts, privacy advocates, or reputable organizations? Also, WHY have they investigated EtreCheck? For example, was it due to user concerns, audits, or security reviews? Having this information would really help build confidence for cautious users like me. I appreciate your help and any details you can provide. Best regards, David B.
