    You do realise the CCP data monitoring systems are known to be completely indiscriminate, right? They try to monitor everyone they can, as much as they can

      And? PRISM’s been doing that for more than a decade now, and you never had an issue with that.

        What do you expect me to be able to do about PRISM, exactly? American made software and services aren’t exactly avoidable like their Chinese equivalents are.

        That’s why I’m fine with it on consoles. That and I don’t live in China, so I don’t have a social credit file that I care about being affected.

        PC games though? Whole 'nother story. People often use their gaming PCs for more serious stuff too, plus it isn’t nearly as big an opportunity cost to later ship a PC update granting remote code execution.
