    This is literally a bog standard privacy policy. Any closed source website or app you use will also track analytics and usage, and basic hardware info like I mentioned. You might as well go on a crusade against Steam for doing the same thing. You and people like you making these comments act like Epic, specifically, is bad for privacy as if nobody else has trackers. You’re misleading people.

      Perhaps I didn’t make myself clear. I am not against Epic because of their privacy policy. I don’t like Epic because of their business practices and owners, and don’t want to give them anything, even if it’s just a bogus email address and a few clicks or whatnot. And no, I never tried to imply other companies don’t do the same thing.

      Here’s the bottom line, as far as I’m concerned:
      I don’t like Epic, and want nothing to do with them. If others want to interact with them, even if it’s just for the free games, that’s their decision to make.
