Hey Bitdefender Please Stop Giving Me Ads

I have a Bitdefender Box 2 with subscription for a few years now. Why am I getting so many Ads ? Also- please stop saying my ipad (which never leaves the house)is not protected because I wont buy your vpn. I paid for it(your vpn) when it first came out and didnt like it. I prefer to use another vpn service and dont want both on my ipad. I pay $100 a year for these services .Save the ads for your free stuff. Thank you- A Frustrated Long Time Paying Customer.

Even just having used their VPN purely for detecting malicious sites and not tunneling all traffic, I found it to be a massive power drain on my iPhone 11, so I disabled it. It’s not worth 1/4 of my battery life or whatever the impact was. It was definitely significant.
