v81 not code signed,,, again

Just downloaded the latest version. Lots of alarms going off, because none of the software is code signed. SHA256 checksum is OK, but what's the story with PIA not code signing their software. They can't afford it?

    The process has no code signature. The executable can be maliciously modified without being detected. Click here to learn more about applications without a code signature.

    I do have the same problem. This has been a repetitive issue but got deeply worse since recent pia update. I need a solution for this

    Sorry to hear about the flags you guys are seeing!

    May I ask what program is flagging the code?

    It IS disturbing that the code (again) isn't signed) - shouldn't someone at PIA be ensuring this?  @PIAJayson

    @DeathStalker I wanted to help out by letting you know our previous releases of our software like V77 on Windows has been updated with "Code signed binaries to reduce anti-virus warnings" . In Mac V81 we have updated our software with "Improved code signing for newer macOS versions". Our changelogs can be found here: https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/pages/downloads .

    @PIASteveG - ok, I haven't installed v81 (Win10) yet.  Wanted to see some feedback on it first.

    I've raised to our Development team for resolution in future releases.
