EA responded to the criticism, change the terms of Origin

Last week gejmerskata community was pretty loud on occasion and nejaseniot fairly general agreement on the terms of using the EA online store Origin. According to most users who commented one of the clauses was attacked too and collect too much data from the user. The EA responded almost immediately and change the problematic article of the treaty. Some pressure may have been from users, and of course the other part is you do not want poor marketing of the service itself, already more fully sviote withdrew products from Steam.

The new section now reads:

    In EA know how much you are worried about the data they collect, use and share and be grateful for the given trust. Information about our customers is an important part of our business and EA will never sell your personal information that can identify you to anyone nor will ever use or install spyware spyware on the computers of its users.

The rest of the "terms of use," you can see here.

Whether this portal gamerlaw said previously there was reason for concern. From gamerlaw this supports the explanation that the agreement for use can not be in conflict with privacy agreement. Therefore, these two agreements must be considered together. As additional security for EA customers are obliged to adhere to the law zazhtita data in the country of sale. Given that the Macedonia will have to harmonize laws with those in the EU in our new law is likely to be similar to the laws of Member States of the EU. In addition gamerslaw explain that there is no major difference between the contracts of using Origin, Windows 7 or Blizzard.

The bigger problem from the agreement to use is perhaps the habit that we have users, spamanje the [Next] button until you start the game without reading any of the terms. This is understandable given that they are incredibly long and mostly full of legal phrases and when we read not understand them completely. Another problem is that most video games parents buy them and install them games so the kids end men's unaware of their commitments.

As for the part in which the EA is obliged to keep data on their customers, most likely this problem is best introduced PSN users to their network security fiasco.
