HOW is not important. The fact that you have to "ask permission/prove ownership" is the bad thing.

if they chose to deny access for whatever reason... you do not <hat you paid for.

You wanna be treated like a potential thief? have it your way.
I never said I wanted OSP. If they take it out I'll be fine with that.

But to answer your point I have to ask you why exactly is it a bad thing? Broken analogies aside, exactly how is this completely transparent check a big problem for me? Yes, if the servers don't work at all then that's a problem, but I'm not a big enough muppet to buy the game straight away without first waiting to see whether the service works for the muppets who do. If the servers work for a while and then stop? And if Ubisoft don't release the promised patch? And if I still want to play SH5 when that happens? Well that's a lot of ifs, but if that did happen I'd use a "fixed" executable file. Problem solved.

Carry on
Everyone has their own line when it comes to privacy of data. Personally I don't mind if Ubisoft knows how many hours I spent torpedoing merchants on Tuesday.
