    Being a tech savvy individual, the complainant additionally examined what exact data was being sent to Ubisoft when playing. The complainant discovered that, over a period of just 10 minutes, the game established a connection to external servers 150 times. Among the recipients of the complainant’s data: Google, Amazon and US software company Datadog.

    Yeah, thats why I don’t buy ubisoft games anymore. If I want to play a game offline, I’m gonna play it offline.

    Add it to the list for pirated games:

    • No DRM
    • Fully offline (when applicable)
    • Complete with all DLC
    • Patched

    And if you get hold of a dodgy copy the malware could be more trustworthy than what ubisoft does.
