I firmly believe in the right to offline gaming, but also understand the need to control major piracy.
(The gaming companies have lost their own revenue with trolling reactions to sjw content and environment imo. https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/wiki/GamerGate_Controversy. But I'm not aware of the entire situation..)

I suspect they track all purchases, usage, and then sell this information as customer profiles for advertisement.
That goes well beyond the stated goals.
