As a software dev, I don’t think there really is a better way. One thing you could do to avoid this is to install a second drive and boot to completely different OSes. You could boot to a Linux drive for personal stuff, and only use Windows for gaming.
These gaming companies are pretty aware that they go bankrupt if they either get a reputation for abusing anti-chrst data OR are full of cheaters. They have some incentive to use data ethically. But it’s still a good thing to keep an eye on.
I was in M2-XFE. That whole experience certainly taught a lot about the power of narrative and propaganda. And the later blockade showed what leadership failures look like.
We always had the advantage in that blockade, and could have stayed there for another year had the allies stuck together. Or we could have executed real plans to break them and end the war. Instead we did the worst of both.
