Review Summary

Internet Security by MetaCert is praised for enhancing online safety, especially in the cryptocurrency space, by flagging phishing sites and offering clear trust indicators. Users appreciate the easy-to-use interface and helpful team support. However, criticisms include limited coverage of international and certain legitimate websites, a costly subscription, occasional doubts about phishing detection effectiveness, and some initial documentation or trust concerns. Overall, it is seen as a valuable tool for internet security, particularly for crypto users, but with room to improve coverage and user trust.
