It probably spys on you already.
The company that makes the Overwolf game launcher is an Israli cyber security company that gets money from the US.

I sometimes wonder what will happen when EAC, that has root access to millions of PCs, gets compromised or grunty employee and pushes malicious update

Holy fuck I did not know about Overwolf. That’s the last time I download something from my, apparently, dipshit friend (no, this is not the only stupid thing he’s done).

I think it’s kind of ironic you call your friend apparently a dipshit for not knowing something you also didn’t know… pot calling the kettle black & all.

from my, apparently, dipshit friend (no, this is not the only stupid thing he’s done).
Reading comprehension is hard. I get it.

Hey, maybe your friend didn’t know either!(nor did i😭)
Jax@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
Yes that’s the problem, he doesn’t know a lot of things. He also doesn’t seem very keen on learning them.
He’s young, so I still have hope for him but god damnit he’s stupid and a potential hazard apparently.

Same thing that happened to genshin when it’s anti cheats got compromised I would guess. Not a lot and everyone ends up not caring.
Because normal people do not give a single fuck about the technical aspect of data privacy.

That’s right. I’m not lying at all when I say that none of my friends care about privacy. It’s actually quite frustrating.
FilthyHookerSpit@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Yup, same here. As long as it’s convenient, my friends/family don’t care what is taken from them.

Then the death squads will come in, and they’ll ask ‘how could this possibly happen!?’, getting fucking pissed or saying “we couldn’t have known!” when you answer, and offer an ‘i fucking told you so’ in line for the camps.
