    I would. I think that just goes to show how informal and unworthy of policing the term is. We even call viruses bugs a lot of the time.

      yeah, i would say “a bug is something that annoys you” so a virus could maybe be perceived as a bug as well, though i also would like to point out that “annoy” does not mean “i don’t like it”. it’s like doing sports, it can be painful but also very fun
