The CFPB issued a report examining the growth of digital commerce in online video games and virtual worlds.
Anyone defending their company of choice is smoking something. I’ll provide just a small part of the article. If you really care about the future of gaming you have to recognize all of these companies are just using you to make money by selling off that info. They literally have a profile on you.
“Gaming companies are assembling gamers’ personal and behavioral data: Publishers are collecting large amounts of data on players, including behavioral details such as financial data, purchasing history and spending thresholds. Gaming platforms can also track players’ location data, which can generate an accurate portrait of a player’s daily routines, such as their home address, places of employment or worship, and health and medical status. And with the advent of virtual- and mixed-reality gaming, the information gathered by headsets may include biometric data such as iris scans, eye movement, pupil response, and gait analysis, which may pose medical privacy risks.”
Want to still go with the narrative that your company cares???
And they use that data to sell influence over us. That's not a conspiracy theory. That's literally how Google and Facebook, Pinterest, etc make money.*
It's not from selling your data per se. It's from selling influence. AI is the next influencer. No accounts needed.
