He's downloading cracks or cracked executables
The cracking groups aren't exactly signing their work with a verifiable public key
Yeah but that should be okay as long as he's getting it from legitimate places (rarbg, official fitgirl site, cs.rin.ru, rutracker etc).
I've not had an AV for like 10+ years, had defender disabled with GPO as soon as I installed W10 and had no issues.
The best AV is your brain. Obviously if you download GTA_6 _(Brazil)_by_xP3tYa1337x.pdf.html with an embedded .hta directly from an IP address in Kamchatka and you have IE installed then yeah maybe you need to give things a manual scan pass with defender or malwarebytes (or just toss it in a VM) once in a while but otherwise you're golden.
Even most vulns today labeled 0day are either unexploitable or require the user to be a dumb motherfucker.
Trust me.
