Accepting Terms of service
Why does this game need to check my browser cookies, browser history, timeline and the weirdest one.. My browser passwords, i need to accept the terms to be able to play this mediocre game or i can't play at all.

the devs just want to know about the people playing their game and what they're doing on the web

But what people are doing on the web is none of their business
Literally no one is requiring any of us to play any of these games.

It's a stupid business practice that won't go away. This is why I don't use browser saved passwords, most cookies I deny and ad-blocker is on 24/7 so they don't get a lot from my browser.

Still very stupid to force you to agree or not play. I wonder if there's a way to get a mod to bypass that.

c'mon guys, relax. The devs just want a peek into where you go and what you do on your pc, what you watch, read, subscribe too, what you have in your bank account and investment portfolio, your facebook page, friends, posts, groups... Not a big deal

I don't see an answer. Wondering the same now...

iirc in the privacy policy they explain what they collect and why. It's mainly 3 things;
- telemetry data (stuff you do in game; you can opt out of this, and I think it's not even collected anymore - the reason for this was continuous development)
- info you give them (like your email address, so they can send you emails)
- browser data (cookie stuff) when you go to one of their websites, which are linked on the title page of the game

I don't remember seeing anything about browser passwords.
