Numerous aliases edit
Why are strains of malware given so many different aliases by different anti-malware companies? Wouldn't it make more sense for them to all agree on one common name and name all variants on a common naming system as well? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.147.5.140 (talk) 19:07, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
