Comment on Anon pirates a game

This hasn’t been my experience with games at all. The data sharing one typically has to be accepted as well, at least on the console games I’ve played.
I always try to say no to them, and they just boot me back to the title screen, even when I have the game on disc. It’s all region-locked shit so I don’t find this terribly surprising, just really invasive…
Pc gaming is probably better because you actually have options to spoof location and stuff, so they can’t know for sure, maybe that’s where you’ve experienced that?

Try again next time. They will do everything they can to make you think you need to accept both, but there’s a reason there are two things you need to approve and why the wording is subtly different when asking approval.
