Privacy group complains Ubisoft forces online play, violates EU data rules, seeks €92M fine.

Noyb, a privacy group, filed a GDPR complaint against Ubisoft for allegedly forcing players to go online in games without online functionality, collecting unnecessary data without consent. The group claims Ubisoft's practices violate GDPR and seeks a fine of up to €92 million. Ubisoft argues the internet connection is only needed initially to improve game performance.
