@ente I have questions on your terms. Why do you have sections 18 and 21 in your terms?
On section 18, you provide no obligation on your part to even inform the users on updates to the terms.
That is #anticonsumer .
On Section 21, I want to know your reasoning on taking the forced arbitration route.
I like your services, but not your terms.

@psoutham @Lazarou nodds in agreement…
We need an "anti-#Thiel" strategy (anti-#monopolization) strategy that empowers #OpenSource, #OpenStandards and only accepts #MultiVendor & #MultiProvider solutions that are #FLOSS as well as #SelfHosting capable (both in terms of "reproduceable builds" & auditable code as well as "you can set it ou yourself" & no bullshit setup)…
Instead #incentives must be set in terms of i.e. #EU-wide public funds for #DigitalInfrastructure that #rewards FLOSS creation and enshures the #maintenance of said projects.

WTF? I don't play any game using #Vanguard anti-cheat, but, this brought to my attention it runs at boot without even running the game now?! WTF?
They don't need to b running kernel level anything let alone at boot without even running their games!
Fuck those companies. I'm not for black-hat hacks, but that should be a green-light for whatever hacks ppl wanna do against them. #antiprivacy #anticonsumer #games
