Tell that to PC gaming right now. Everyone is more than happy to install kernel level spyware to play a game.
People sacrificing privacy for security, sad how much things changed this century.
They're sacrificing privacy for playing a video game with moderately less cheaters sometimes when that works, not for security.
And although sacrificing privacy is rarely good, I believe there are some situations that could be acceptable. Playing a video game isn't one of these (to me at least…).
It's some sort of security (no cheaters). As a linux user I am a bit bitter because I wanted to play the new battlefield but oh well, my tendonitis appreciates that.
