    In the old days the viruses would just put a skull up on your screen or some other nonsense.

    Now the virus hides and they track everything you do and steal all your passwords and banking information.

    It’s better for them to not go loud. Otherwise they’ll be discovered. And the point is to stay hidden as long as possible to collect as much data as possible.

    Most people don’t know their computers are infected.
