I am not a lawyer, so i cant really say anything about legal options.If you don't care you will be spied upon by another software.Contact them and request your Data they have on you via GDPR.Uninstall the games, or block the communication of the spyware ( "redshell.io" "" "" "" - Here is a guide on that ), or trust them to not collect your data after you emailed them (right?).What can you do if they include Spyware in your game? It could be in any installation file downloaded from steam or elsewhere, and sending off your data to who knows whom and making money of it. They will patch it into a game even years after you bought it. Generally we as Gamers should be very cautious of Developers and Publishers including such software without our consent. I assume there are many more games on steam which contain such spyware. It was also removed from Conan Exiles after players found out - Īnd that's all probably just the tip of an Iceberg. I had no time to do that.īethesda had to remove it from Elder Scrolls Online just lately. I would think it could be interesting to check if other Daedalic Entertainment Games have that spyware in it as well. Also the Publisher of this one title is Daedalic Entertainment, while the others are self published. The announcement yesterday was only from "Holy Potatoes! We’re in Space?!", but i would consider all their games as on risk to contain that spyware if they choose to include it again, with or without announcement. My data is my own and you have no business making money of it. As a person and a gamer i refuse to be data mined. I make this thread to raise awareness of these user unfriendly marketing practices and data mining software that are common on the mobile market, and which are flooding over to our PC Games market. This should have no place in a full price PC game, and in no games if it were up to me. On their website they formulate it all in very harmless language, but the fact is that this is software from someone i don't trust and whom i never invited, which is looking at my data and running on my pc against my will. Red shell is a Spyware that tracks data of your PC and shares it with 3rd parties.
