    It means all EA games going forward will be hostile nazi spyware. They can drop illegal documents on your computer remotely. Take all your information, and sell it off quick on the cheap… to other nazis.

    Nazis like this destroy everything they touch. EA wasn’t great, and was getting worse, but never deserves to be turned into nazi spyware - especially to anyone (not necessarily stupid, but probably) that enjoys sports (and their dumbass kids).
