Alternatives?

Like most people I don't particularly want yet more info collected and shared. As such I want to switch from AVG to some alternative that doesn't (yet) steal such data.

It would be good to hear thoughts on which free alternatives offer the same or better service compared with AVG Free. I'm aware of Avast!, Avira, Panda and others and know there are comparions out there (like http://uk.pcmag.com/security-reviews/142/guide/the-best-free-antivirus-for-2015) but it is always good to get El Reg user feedback.
