Avast's response to the war in Ukraine
In protest against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Avast is ceasing all business operations in Russia and Belarus. Among other things, this means pulling out ca. $2.5m of sales tax collected by the Russian government annually from the sales of our products - money that could be potentially used to fund the war. Not any more.
