Why are people on this so liberal with using the term “virus”?

Do people just not know what to call them so they just say “virus” because that’s what the security suite says is bad?

Unwanted messages that show up in your inbox are called spam. Or junk, maybe.

What about or posts or places that contain links to places that hijack your account or potentially steal your information? Phishing.

It’s not a virus unless it places code on your computer and it is able to spread itself around a network. They present themselves only on your OS and not just on a website. So if you go to a sketchy site and now you suddenly have unwanted apps running and installing without you knowing, then that’s closer to a virus.
