I've not commented as I only use Windows Defender which I think is adequate for most stuff, and is free. But maybe Kaspersky does more.
In my mind there is a bit of unnecessary paranoia going on, with people telling me I ought not have bought a Chinese phone for SWMBO etc, and people stopping using certain brands of network hardware because they might be eavesdropped by the Chinese government.
OTOH I have recently implemented a VPN for my surfing as a) it was cheap and b) I do love a challenge. In fact I just turned my Raspberry Pi into a VPN server. I'm not mandating VPN use by all devices yet as I've not tested it enough, and I'm not sure I really need it much of the time () - there is something of a performance overhead on the Pi) but I think that day will come, as I see the ISPs almost as a greater threat (not through their own volition) than foreign governments.
I probably have the wrong end of the threat stick though...
