Well just as I thought everything with BF3 was going well. DICE co-ordinating with AC sites and rcon progamme developers. The possibility that screenshots will actually work, the sun shining and the birds singing. THEN EA spring this little GEM on fans:

Soon we won't be able to take a piss without EA knowing about it. Joy..

That is not good one bit.
I suppose if it were limited to hardware/driver oversight for the sole reason of patches or troubble shooting, I could understand some need for a partial intrusion.
But to shoehorn monitoring/selling a paying customers surfing patterns under the umbrella of a EULA is bulsh. About the time I am ready to heap praise on EA/DICE, I am reminded why I am naturally suspicious.
