EA Data Logging - Ambitions & Patch

<< < (4/18) > >>

Claeric:
This won't turn off for me. It doesnt save the setting when I accept.

IAmTheRad:
I wouldn't mind data logging if they told us what they actually logged.

It's not like Steam's hardware surveys, which are completely optional to participate in. Some games do log your activity (not counting MMOs. Those log you no matter what), but it's just like how long you've been playing or your computer specs.

If EA logs your content, what expansions you have installed, mods, or other computer settings, that's an invasion of privacy. However due to their EULA we can't do anything about it, except opt out (better opting out/in than making it mandatory)

J. M. Pescado:
EA has been installing spyware into Sims games for ages. Never allow it access to the Interwebs. Simple as that.

BriarRosethorn:
I knew it wouldn't be long before I asked a stupid question on here, and here it is: how do you stop the game from accessing the Internet without stopping it from letting you know when you need to download a patch or whatnot?

Claeric:
0 is false and 1 is true, right? I checked my options config file and it says 0 for EnableTelemetry, but hte game has it checkmarked anyway.
