“Nobody programs in low-level C anymore, and nobody creates new PC automation apps. TinyTask is both....so it must be malicious, apparently? To confirm this theory, here's a simple "Hello World" app written in C, all optimizations deactivated and zero functionality, and definitely not malware, evaluated by Google-owned VirusTotal. Yup, multiple warnings”

I can definitely see how heuristics would target programs that weren’t written on well-known frameworks, so in the goal of protecting people, we’ve effectively denied ourselves the ability to write programs on the entire substrate.

I wonder if eventually Explorer.exe and all the other windows core programs would be considered malware since hey, they’re all written in C/C++ and only nasty hackers use that, right?
