finally figured out the way to uninstall. took some help from linux mint forum also.

the installation folder /opt/eset/RemoteAdministrator/Agent had a setup folder which had a uninstall.sh file and that did my job. sw removed completely.
but i guess, eset should provide instructions to do this. i could not find way to uninstall the agent on website. not everyone is a linux expert. neither am i.

What firewall do you use? The ESET firewall in ESET Endpoint Security allows communication for ESET and ESET agents and connectors by default.

the world is rocked by the horrifying news of how despotic authoritarian governments and their agencies have used the spyware pegasus made by NSO from israel to intrude the phones & privacy of journalists/opposition leaders/judges/activists etc.
from all accounts, it is now becoming clear that the two primary operating systems on phones, android & ios by google & apple have intentional backdoors disguised as security bugs to allow the security agencies to snoop into any smart phone worldwide.
my question is, as a responsible antivirus vendor, will eset ever be able to protect the users from such illegal intrusions ? is it ever possible, considering that the OS itself has been laid bare to such intrusions by incorporating "security bugs".
phones, especially the smart phones are are no longer secure, but the stunning silence of all AV vendors is even more cause for concern.

few suggestions :
1.
description : download of all in one installer files should run in the background, and allow user to attend other tasks.
detail : once the AIO installer file download is started, often it takes up long time & warns about not closing the window otherwise the download is aborted. instead let the user start the download and close the window. the download shd proceed as background process.
2.
description : rename the downloaded AIO installer as per the given name to the installer instead of the generic name like ESMC_Installer_x64_en_US. optionally you can give the option to rename the files based on ver of agent & security file selected.
